1. vascular constriction
3 stages of hemostasis 2. formation of platelet plug
3. blood coagulation
decrease in platelet number because of:
Bleeding associated with 1. decreased production (bone marrow dysfunction)
platelet disorders reflects: 2. increased destruction (thrombocytopenia)
3. impaired function of platelets (thrombocytopathia)
Spontaneous bleeding small vessels of mucus membranes and skin:
from platelet disorders mucus membranes of nose, mouth, GI tract, and
often involve uterine cavity
petechiae is seen conditions of platelet deficiency
exclusively with **not platelet dysfunction
Platelet < 150,000
can result from:
thrombocytopenia 1. decrease in platelet production
2. increased sequestration of platelets in spleen
3. decreased platelet survival
, 1. excessive loss of RBC from bleeding
2. destruction (hemolysis) of RBC
Four primary causes of
3. Defective RBC production
anemia
4. Inadequate RBC production because of bone
marrow failure
characteristics of RBC in microcytic and hypochromic
iron deficiency anemia
characteristics of RBC in macrocytic and misshaped
megablastic anemai
characteristics of RBC in abnormally shaped
sickle cell disease
blood loss anemia is loss of iron containing blood cells in body
characterized by
hemolytic anemia is destruction of RBC in the body with iron being
characterized by retained
inadequate iron available for recycling:
-men/postmenopausal women: GI bleed from peptic
ulcer, vascular lesions, intestinal polyps, hemorrhoids,
Reason for iron deficiency
or cancer
anemia (IDA) in adults
-women childbearing age: menstruation
-pregnant women: fetal development increases iron
requirements for erythropoiesis
blood volume increases with greater need for iron
(proportionally higher in infancy between 3-24
months):
Reason for IDA in children
low iron levels at birth because of maternal deficiency
and a diet consisting mainly of cow's milk (low in
absorbable iron)
, -onset is insidious
-incubation period (from exposure to the
development of symptoms) 4-6 weeks
-prodromal period (early stage/symptom
Clinical Course of presentation) lasts for several days and characterized
Infectious Mononucleosis by malaise, anorexia, and chills--> precedes onset of
fever, pharyngitis, and lymphadenopathy
-acute phase lasts 2-3 weeks with recovery occurring
rapidly
-debility and lethargy may persist for 2-3 months
most common splenomegaly (50-60% cases)
complication of infectious spleen enlarged 2-3 times normal size
mononucleosis rupture is rare; educate to avoid contact sports
monospot testing for heterophile antibodies
diagnosing infectious
(hallmark)
mononucleosis
IgM and IgG increased early in disease
-painless enlargement of single node or group of
nodes (typically at level of diaphragm: neck,
supraclavicular, axilla)
Manifestations of
-mediastinal mass (c/o chest discomfort with cough or
Hodgkin's Lymphoma
dyspnea)
-fever, chills, night sweats, and weight loss
-pruritus and intermittent night fevers
Reed-Sternberg cells present in biopsy of lymph
tissue
Diagnosis of Hodgkin's
-bipedal lymphangiogram detects structural changes
Lymphoma
of lymph nodes too small to see on CT
-bilateral bone marrow biopsy performed on patient's
suspected of disseminated diseases
localized disease is treated with radiation
Treatment of Hodgkin's
Lymphoma advanced disease may use combined approach of
radiation, chemotherapy, and biotherapy
