Physical Clinical Labs
Elissa J. Mullen, ND |
Clinical Lab diagnosis flash cards were written to have a quick portable review. Please let me know of any mistakes, updates or additional information that you believe would add to other Naturopathic doctors passing the Clinical lab exam.
I reviewed these cards using Clinical Laboratory Diagnosis notes taught by the brilliant Dr. Berman. (Bastyr University, 2003) Thanks, good luck everyone…Elissa drelissa@seattlewellnessprograms.com |

Hemostasis
|
• Definition: Balance between clotting and bleeding
• Platelet Count—CBC o Norm: 150,000 – 450,000/L • 3 Main Functions 1. Retain blood in vessels 2. Localize reactions to site of injury 3. Repair and reestablish blood flow |
|
Clotting Factors – Common tests
|
Common tests;
• Prothrombin time (extrinsic pathway) Prothrombin F1=2 and INR o Measures Extrinsic and Common pathway effectiveness o Factors: I, II, V, X, VII • Activated Partial thromboplastim Time (intrinsic pathway) o Measures Intrinsic and Common pathways o Factors: I, II, V, X, VIII, IX, XI, XII • Thrombin time (Functional Fibrinogen) • Factoassyas • Anticoagulant interference o Heparin o Coumadin • Fibrin Degradation Products • Protamine Sulfate • Protein C • Anti-thrombin III |
|
INR
|
International normalized ratio:
• WHO standardized control of anticoagulant therapy internationally • Ratio of patient PT to control PT x international sensitivity index (ISI) • A standard reference range is not available for this test. Because reference values are dependent on many factors, including patient age, gender, sample population, and test method, numeric test results have different meanings in different labs. • For most clinical conditions, an INR of 2.5 to 3.0 indicates the appropriate dosage. INR values above 5.0 can be dangerous. INR values of 1.0 indicate no Coumadin effect at all. |
