pbs, hematopoiesis Flashcards
what is the critical value for hematocrit
<20%
>65%
what is the critical value for hemoglobin
<70 g/L
>200g/L
what is the critical value for RETICULOCYTE
> 20
what is the critical value for WBC COUNT
<2,000 IF NEW PX OR 1, 000 DIFFERENCE FROM THE PREVIOUS RESULTS IF LESS THAN 4,000
> 50,000 FOR NEW PATIENT
what is the critical value for BLOOD SMEAR
NEUTROPHILIC PHAGOCYTOSIS
ABNORMAL LEUKOMOID REACTION
SICKLE CELL
SCHISTOCYTE
BLAST FORMS
PRESENCE OF INTRACELLULAR ORGANISM
what is the critical value for PLATELETS
< 20,000/UL AND NOT PREVIOUSLY. REPORTED
> 1,000,000/UL
PROTHOMBIN TIME
40 SECONDS
2 sources of specimen for pbs
EDTA BLOOD
ANTICOAGULANT FREE BLOOD
WHAT ARE THE ADVANTAGES OF USING EDTA FOR PBS?
MULTIPLE BLOOD SMEAR CAN BE MADE
THE BLOOD SMEAR MAY BE PREPARED LATER
EDTA PREEVENTS PLATELET CLUMPING
WHAT ARE THE DISADVANTAGES OF USING EDTA
PLATELETS SATELLITOSIS
EDTA INDUCED PLATELET CLUMPING
WHAT ARE THE EFFECTS OF 2 DISADVANTAGES
PLATELET SATELLITOSIS: PSEUDOTHROMBOCYTOPENIA
EDTA INDUCED PLATELET CLUMPING: PSEUDOTHROMBOCYTOPENIA AND PSEUDOLEUKOCYTOSIS
WHAT ARE THE REMEDIES FOR PSUEDOTHROMBOOCYTOPENIA AND PSUEDOLEUKOCYTOSIS
RECOLLECT BLOOD SPECIMEN THEN USE 3.2% SODIUM CITRATE
THEN AFTER YOU GOT THE RESULT COMPUTE THEM
PLATELET CNT RESULT X 1.1
WBC CNT RESULT X 1.1
THIS KIND OF SPECIMEN COLLECTION IS BEST FOR EVALUATION BLOOD CELL MORPHOLOGY
ANTICOAGULANT FREE BLOOD
ADVANTAGES OF ANTICOAGULANT-FREE BLOOD
MADE BESIDE THE PX
SOME ARTIFACT CAN BE PREVENTED
MOST FREQUENTLY USED METHOD IN BLOOD FILM PREPARATION
TWO-GLASS SLIDE METHOD (MANUAL WEDGE TECHNIQUE)
WHAT ARE THE 2 SLIDES BEING USED
PUSHER SLIDE
FILM SIDE
WHAT IS THE ANGLE BETWEEN THESE TWO SLIDES?
30-45 DEGREE
IF THE ANGLE OF THE SPREADER IS TOO HIGH WHAT WILL HAPPEN?
THICKER SMEAR
IF THE ANGLE OF THE SPREADER IS TOO LOW WHAT WILL HAPPEN?
THINNER SMEAR
WHAT IS THE LENGTH OF PBS ?
2-3 MM
