, systemic circulation exchange of gases, nutrients, and wastes in tissues
pulmonary circulation gas exchange in the lungs
function of plasma osmotic pressure, antibody, and blood clots
proteins
erythrocytes contain hemoglobin, life span of about 120 days
produced in the kidney, stimulates erythrocyte
erythropoietin
production
3 steps of blood clotting 1. vasoconstriction of vascular spasm after injury 2.
(hemostasis) platelet clot 3. coagulation mechanism
Rh+ antigen D in plasma membrane
Rh- absence of antigen D
causes a reduction in oxygen transport, basic
anemia
problem is hemoglobin deficit
less energy production in all cells, tachycardia and
oxygen deficit leads to peripheral vasoconstriction-compensation
mechanisms
fatigue, pallor, dyspnea, tachycardia, decreased
general signs of anemia regeneration of epithelial cells, severe anemia may
lead to angina of CHF
insufficient iron impairs hemoglobin synthesis,
iron deficiency anemia
microcytic (smaller) and hypochromic (less color)
dietary intake of iron below minimum, chronic blood
etiology of iron deficiency
loss, impaired duodenal absorption of iron, severe
anemia
