Myeloproliferative neoplasms (crash cards) Flashcards
Myeloproliferative neoplasms:
Low EPO
Normal SaO2
High RBC#
High WBC#
High Platelet #
Increased plasma volume
Increased MCV
Polycythemia Vera (primary)
A JAK2 mutation that leads to the production of too many RBCs
Signs:
- Aquagenic pruritis
- Erythromelalgia
- Thrombotic episodes
Myeloproliferative neoplasms:
Normal EPO
Normal SaO2
Normal MCV
Low Plasma volume
Relative Polycythemia
Caused by dehydration or burns
Myeloproliferative neoplasms:
High EPO
High MCV
Normal Plasma volume
Low SaO2
Secondary appropriate polycythemia
Caused by:
- Lung disease
- Congenital heart disease (Right-left shunt)
- High altitude
- Smoking
Myeloproliferative neoplasms:
Normal Plasma volume
Normal SaO2
High MCV
High EPO
Secondary Inappropriate Polycythemia
Caused by
- Exogenous EPO (blood doping)
or
- Malignancy (RCC, HCC)
Myeloproliferative neoplasms:
AV Malformations
Recurrent epistaxis
Telangiectasias (blanching lesions)
Gi bleeding
Hematuria
Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia (Osler-Weber-Rendu)
AUTO DOM mutations in either ENG (Endoglin) or ALK1 which both modulate TGF-B signaling leading to uncontrolled bleeding
Shock:
High SVR (afterload)
Low PCWP (preload)
Low CO
Cold + clammy skin
Hypovolemic Shock
Caused by:
- Hemorrhages
- Dehydration
- Burns
Shock:
High/Low PCWP (preload)
High SVR (afterload)
Very Low CO
Cold + clammy skin
Cardiogenic shock
Caused by:
- Acute MI
- Valve dysfunction
- Arrythmia
Shock:
High/Low PCWP
High SVR (afterload)
Very Low CO
Cold + clammy skin
Obstructive shock
Caused by
- Cardiac tamponade
- Pulmonary embolism
- Tension pneumothorax
Shock:
Warm skin
Low PCWP (preload)
Very Low SVR (afterload)
High CO
Distributive shock
Caused by:
- Sepsis
- Anaphylaxis
- CNS injury
Shock:
Dry skin
Low PCWP (preload)
Very Low SVR (afterload)
Low CO
Distributive shock
Caused by:
- Sepsis
- Anaphylaxis
- CNS injury
Heart:
Low CO
Low QRS
High HR
Cardiac Tamponade
Heart is compressed by fluid (blood & effusions in the pericardial sac)
Signs:
- Pulsus paradox
- Becks triad (Hypotension, Distended Jugular vein, Distant heart sounds)
- Electrican alternans
Heart:
ST Elevation
Pathological Q waves
Full thickness of myocardial wall involved
Transmural infarcts
Myocardial infarction
Usually from a ruptured coronary artery atherosclerotic plaque causing acute thrombosis with elevated CKMB & Troponins
MI:
Coagulative necrosis
Delineated Myocardium
No nuclei
0-24Hr Mi caused by ventricular arrythmia, Heart failure, & Cardiogenic shock
MI:
Heavy neutrophilic infiltrates
24-48Hrs
MI:
Macrophages with granulation
&
Angiogenesis
3-5 Days
