a blood clot in the lungs; potentially deadly disorder. - ANS-pulmonary embolism
a blood collection tube containing a fast-acting clot activator for quicker testing; usually
has an orange stopper. - ANS-stat serum tube
a blood collection tube containing an anticoagulant and a gel designed to separate the
liquid and solid components of blood after centrifugation. - ANS-plasma separator tube
(PST)
a blood collection tube containing no anticoagulant additive and a gel designed to
separate the liquid and solid components of blood after centrifugation. - ANS-serum
separator tube (SST)
a blood draw that must happen at a specific time, often depending upon when the
patient last took a medication. - ANS-timed draw
a blood vessel that carries blood toward the heart. - ANS-vein
a blood vessel that carries oxygenated blood away from the heart. - ANS-artery
a bone infection that can be caused if a lancet used for finger stick or heel stick strikes
the bone. - ANS-osteomyelitis
a branch of medicine dealing with elderly patients. - ANS-geriatrics
a branch of medicine dealing with people under the age of 18. - ANS-pediatrics
a buildup of blood cells (solid components) relative the liquid components of the blood. -
ANS-hemoconcentration
a category of short-lived white blood cells including eosinophils and basophils. - ANS-
granulocyte
a cell produced in the bone marrow that fragments into platelets. - ANS-megakaryocyte
a cell that can become any type of cell. - ANS-stem cell
a center that provides skilled care 24 hours a day to residents who live there. - ANS-
long-term care facility
a chemical substance created by that body that controls body functions. - ANS-hormone
, a clear yellowish fluid that carries disease-fighting cells called lymphocytes. - ANS-
lymph
a clot formed within a blood vessel. - ANS-thrombus
a common blood test used to determine the number of red blood cells, white blood cells,
and platelets are in a patient's blood; CBC with differential specifies how many of each
type of white cell is present. - ANS-complete blood count (CBC)
a condition caused by faulty lymphatic draining; a risk if phlebotomy is performed on an
arm on the same side as a previous mastectomy. - ANS-lymphedema
a condition in which a person has either too few red blood cells or too little hemoglobin
in the blood. - ANS-anemia
a condition in which small, flat red or purple dots appear on the skin as a result of
leaking capillaries. - ANS-petechiae
a condition in which the pancreas produces too little insulin or does not properly use
insulin. - ANS-diabetes
a connection between a vein and an artery. - ANS-arteriovenous (AV) fistula
a course of action that should be taken every time a certain situation occurs. - ANS-
policy
a device similar to a tube holder, used to safely transfer blood from a syringe into
evacuated tubes. - ANS-syringe transfer device
a diagnostic test determined by CLIA to be simple, easy to perform, and involving little
risk of error; phlebotomists can often perform these tests. - ANS-CLIA waived test
a diagnostic test in which a patient's throat is swabbed and the specimen analyzed for
the presence of bacteria. - ANS-throat culture
a disability that is present at birth or emerges during childhood or early adulthood that
restricts physical and/or mental ability. - ANS-developmental disability
a disorder that can cause excessive bleeding. - ANS-hemophilia
a disorder that can cause excessive clotting. - ANS-thrombophilia
a double-sided needle used in phlebotomy; one side pierces the patient's skin and the
other punctures the stoppers of collection tubes. - ANS-multisample needle
a facility or department within a facility concerned with collecting and preparing blood for
transfusion. - ANS-blood bank
a facility that collects and analyzes specimens from patients in order to provide doctors
and other healthcare professionals with information. - ANS-clinical laboratory
a federal agency within the US Department of Health and Human Services that is
responsible for Medicare and Medicaid, among many other responsibilities. - ANS-
Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS)
a federal government agency that issues guidelines to protect and improve the health of
individuals and communities. - ANS-Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)
a federal government agency that makes rules to protect workers from hazards on the
job. - ANS-Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA)
a federal law that requires health information be kept private and secure and that
organizations take special steps to protect this information. - ANS-Health Insurance
Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA)
a form of diabetes associated with pregnancy. - ANS-gestational diabetes
