RBC disease in terms of anemia , list them
|
iron deficiency anemia
hemolytic anemia megaloblastic anemia aplastic anemia |
|
what is iron deficiency aneima
|
look Fe in body, so we cannot form alot of hemoglobin
|
|
most common type of anemia
|
iron deficiency anemia
|
|
causes of iron deficnecy
|
blood loss,
pregnancy - blood loss malabs of iron in intestinal area |
|
hemolytic anemia is...
|
shorten lifespan of RBC due to hereditary defect tha produce abnormal RBC or hemobloblin
ex. sickle cell anemia ex. sickle cell anemia |
|
megaloblastic anemia
|
low vita B32 or folic acid in diet - so leads to defective DNA synthesis
- causes low RBC, but rbc has normal hemoglobin |
|
in megaloblastic anemia, is it true that there is low RBC but normal amt of hemoglobin in RBC?
|
TRUE
|
|
aplastic anemia
|
bone marrow sucks at production of all cells including RBC
other signs - no paltelet so bleed easily - susceptable to infection cuz low white blood cell too |
|
polycythemia
|
means increase RBC in hematocrit
two types primary and secondary polycthemia prim - hyperplasia of bone marrow so increase RBC and white blood cell. can be tumor based secondary - incrase hemoglobin - can be due to living in high altitude or neoplasm |
|
patho of white blood cells
|
leukemia
lymphoma |
|
three types of leukemia
|
myelocytric leukemia
- cancer of bone marrow so incrase granulyocytes - but decrease RBC and platelet lymphatic leukemia - neoplasm of lymphNODES - increase lymphocytes infectious mononucleosis - aka kissing diesase - increase lymphoid cells |
|
what is lymphoma
|
neoplasm of lymhoreticular system (spleen, lymph nodes, lymphoid tissue)
location, anywhere in lymphoreticular system |
|
list the platelet disease
|
hemophillia
- sex link recessive disease where there is decrease factor VIII - so we cannot stop bleeding!!!! purpura - low platelet - sponteneous bleeding! |
|
what is purpura
|
low platelet #
- leads to spontenous bleeding |
|
what is hemophilia
|
low or missing factor VIII required in platelet coagulation
- spontenous bleeding |
