,Question 4
CH.11
CORRECT ANSWER
A) Thrombocytopenia
(Neutropenia=absolute neutrophil count of less than 500 cells/mcl resulting in fevers and
frequent infections.
Leukopenia=decrease in white blood cells also putting the individual at risk for infections.
Anemia=decrease in hemoglobin and hematocrit affecting the body's ability to transport
oxygen causing fatigue and ultimately respiratory issues.)
Question 5
When a patient receives bone marrow from a closely matched relative, it is referred to as
what type of transplant?
A)Allogenic
B)Autologous
C)Graft-versus-host
D)Peripheral stem cell
Question 6
CH.11
CORRECT ANSWER
A) Allogenic
(Autologous transplants collect stem cells from the patient's own blood to be stored and
then re-infused after chemotherapy and irradiation.

, Graft-versus-host disease is a serious problem that can occur from allogenic transplants.
Using peripheral stem cell transplantation (which is a form of autologous transplant)
helps eliminate the problem of graft-versus-host disease.)
