Which of these tubes must never be placed on a blood rocker
after being filled with blood?
.
1. Blue top
2. Green top
3. Purple top
4. Red top - ANSWER-Red top
Red top tubes should be left in a rack to clot; they should not be
rocked to prevent coagulation. Blue, green, and purple top
tubes all contain an anticoagulant and therefore should be
rocked gently in the rocker until they can be read.
A patient is to be prepared for a femoral head ostectomy. What
part of the body is prepped?
1. Top of the head
2. Hip
3. Shoulder
4. Lumbar spine - ANSWER-Hip
,2|Page
A femoral head ostectomy is the removal of the proximal end of
the femur, which is located in the hip. The head, shoulder, and
spine are insignificant.
Looking under a microscope at a blood smear, you see
erythrocytes that are elliptical, not nucleated, and lacking
central pallor. From which species was this sample most likely
collected?
1. Bird
2. Horse
3. Llama
4. Snake - ANSWER-llama
In the llama, the predominant cell type is the erythrocyte.
Hemoglobin pigment may appear evenly disbursed throughout
the cell or concentrated at each end of the oval, lacking a
central pallor. Bird and reptile erythrocytes are usually oval in
shape and are nucleated. Horse erythrocytes are round and
anucleated. Only red blood cells of llamas are ovoid and devoid
of a nucleus.

Gastric dilatation/volvulus (GDV) is a life-threatening
emergency. Which of the following veins becomes obstructed
as a result of GDV?
1. Femoral vein
2. Gastroduodenal vein
3. Portal vein
4. Renal vein - ANSWER-Portal vein
When the stomach distends, it puts pressure on the caudal
vena cava, portal vein, and splenic veins. This causes a decrease
in blood flow to the caudal vena cava, which in turn causes a
decrease in venous return to the heart. Cardiac output
decreases as does the blood pressure. A GDV does not cause
obstruction of the femoral vein, gastroduodenal vein, or renal
vein.
Which of the listed diseases best fits the statement that
follows? It is most commonly transmitted by aerosol exposure,
but it can also be spread by direct contact with conjunctival and
nasal exudates, urine, feces, skin, and sometimes fomites. The
incubation period is generally 7 to 10 days in the ferret. The
disease spreads by viremia after it is in the body, and it is almost
always fatal.

1. Canine distemper virus
2. Influenza B
3. Pneumocystis carinii
4. Cryptococcosis - ANSWER-Canine distemper virus
Canine distemper virus is most commonly transmitted by
aerosol exposure, but can also be spread by direct contact with
conjunctival and nasal exudates, urine, feces, skin, and
sometimes fomites. The incubation period is generally 7 to 10
days in the ferret. The disease spreads by viremia after it is in
the body and it is almost always fatal. Influenza B has a low
pathogenicity and is primarily passed via aerosol droplets. It is
not necessarily fatal. Pneumocystis carinii is pneumonia caused
by a yeastlike organism. Cryptococcosis is caused by a fungus
and can be fatal.
Which of the following is a local block used for onychectomy
procedures?
1. Leg block
2. Brachial plexus block
3. Circumferential ring block
