What is th extrinsic pathway
|
it is activated by the release of thromboplastin from the tissue. Resulting prothrombin to thrombin which changes fribrinogen to fibrin
|
|
how much iron is normally stored in the body
|
3 g
|
|
how much iron is normally absorbed by the body
|
0.5 - 1 mg
|
|
what is the intrinsic pathway
|
activated when the collagen that lines blood vessels is exposed. Clotting factors activated as with the extrinsic pathway with fibrin ultimately formed.
|
|
what is plasminogen
|
after the fibrin clot is no longer needed, plasminogen is required to break it down as plasmin. and the degraded products are released into the vascular system.
|
|
What cells have their activity in the spleen
|

|
|
where does hemotopoiesis occur
|
in the bone marrow, (but can in the spleen in fetal life and in later adulthood when the bone marrow can't)

|
A finding that most strongly supports a diagnosis of acute leukemia is the presence of a large number of immature:
monocytes basophils thrombocytes leukocytes |
leukemia is manifested by abnormal overproduction of immature leukocytes in the bone marrow.
increase in monocytes = viral infection increase in basophils = allergic reaction increase in thrombocytes=polycythemia |

|
Major goals of anemia nursing care
|
decrease fatigue, attain adequate nutrition, attain adequate tissue perfusion
|
|
What is aplastic anemia
|
T-cells attack bone marrow resulting in aplasia - decrease hematoporeisis. so in addition to anemia, neurtropenia and thrombocytopenia are seen
