What does “shift to the left” mean
Abundance of immature neutrophils
Where are the lymphatic vessels found
Pulmonary space
Interstitial space
What lymph goes to the thoracic duct
Inferior to diaphragm and left side of the body
Lymphatic drainage of lung
From lung to intrapulmonary node at bifurcation at the larger bronchi
To the bronchopulmonary nodes near the hilum
To the tracheobronchial nodes
Increasingly larger nodes to thoracic duct
What is leukemoid reaction
An extreme increase in WBC (50,000 or more)

15,000-20,000
When do neutrophils begin to phagocytosis
24-48 hrs
What is the life span of neutrophils
10-a few days
When are bands created
When the older neutrophils die off
When do you see a “shift to the left”
Acute inflammatory response
Does the WBCs or bands increase first
“Shift to the left” is the earliest sign of WBC response
