with verified answers
Hemodynamics or blood flow is affected by what factors? Ans✓✓✓ Pressure,
resistance, flow, radius, blood viscosity, compliance, wall tension
How can anemias be classified according to size and color? Ans✓✓✓ Anemias
can be normochromic (normal color) or hypochromic (decreased color). Red cells
can also vary in size: normocytic (normal size), microcytic (small cells), and
macrocytic (large cells)
what another term for neutropenia? Ans✓✓✓ Agranulocytosis
What are acquired or secondary factors of hypercoagulability that lead to venous
stasis? Ans✓✓✓ Prolonged bed rest and immobility, myocardial infarction,
cancer, hyperestrogenic states, oral contraceptives, smoking, and obesity
What are the 2 different ways heart failure can be defined? Ans✓✓✓ Systolic vs
diastolic failure and right vs left heart failure
What are the current stages of hypertension? Ans✓✓✓ Currently, normal blood
pressure is defined as less than 120/80. Elevated blood pressure is < 130/80;
hypertension stage 1 is < 140/90; and hypertension stage 2 is > 140/90.
What are the five types of lipoproteins? Ans✓✓✓ Chylomicrons, very-low-
density lipoprotein (VLDL), intermediate-density lipoprotein (IDL), low-density
lipoprotein (LDL), and high-density lipoprotein (HDL). HDL is good, LDL is bad
cholesterol.
