Multiple Hemorrhage Blood Bleeding

2) Page 1: Definition- Hemorrhage: "An escape of blood from a ruptured blood vessel, especially when profuse."

Associated with a large loss of blood. In the case it is the extreme amount of blood lost from her arm wound. Hemorrhage’s can be internal or external

Multiple Myeloma is a form of cancer which affects the plasma cells of the body, which are white blood cells. Multiple Myeloma, first described in 1848, is a disease “characterized by a proliferation of malignant plasma cells and a subsequent overabundance of monoclonal paraprotein.” To understand how Multiple Myeloma affects an infected person’s plasma cells, it helps to have a general understanding of how normal blood cells are formed and how they act. Most blood cells develop from stem cells, which can be found in bone marrow (soft material inside our bones – the “filling”). Stem cells mature into white blood cells, red blood cells, or platelets.2 The purpose of white blood cells is to fight off infection, while

Leukemia is a cancer of blood cells, specifically white blood cells that are responsible for fighting infection. However, the abnormal cells in leukemia do not function in the same way as normal white blood cells. Leukemia cells continue to grow and divide, eventually crowding out normal blood cells. The end result is that it becomes difficult for the body to fight infections, control bleeding and transport oxygen (Medicine Net, 2015). It is estimated that each year, approximately 30,800 individuals will be diagnosed with leukemia in the United

There are two types of haematoma. The first type intramuscular haematoma this is where bleeding occurs within the compartment of the muscle but does not seep into any surrounding tissue. The second type intramuscular haematoma is where blood escapes into surrounding areas such as muscles or tissue and stays in that muscle or part of the body.

Hemorrhages, or internal bleeding, account for a large portion of deaths in the world. Hemorrhages are an extremely life threatening injury that require immediate medical attention. These injuries are extremely sensitive to the time of injury and the time it takes for surgery to begin. Hemorrhages fall into two main categories: non-compressible and compressible. Compressible hemorrhages can be treated with external compression, tourniquets, and dressings. Non-compressible hemorrhages can not be treated with these techniques, because the injury is usually deep inside the abdominal part of the body and either not visible, or not within reach. This makes non-compressible hemorrhages much more challenging to treat.

Hematomas occur as blood begins to pool in the tissues on the outside of blood vessels as a result of a major injury to the head or brain. Depending on the extent of the injury, however, this can cause increasing and substantial to major vessels of the head and/or brain, thereby causing severe and extensive bleeding within the brain itself. Additionally, there are also a number of different types of hematomas, depending on where the hematoma develops. According to the 2016 report issued by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), “different types of hematomas form depending on where the blood collects relative to the meninges. The meninges are the protective membranes surrounding

Leukemia is cancerous disease that starts in blood-forming tissue such as the bone marrow and causes large numbers of blood cells to be produced and enter the blood-stream (National Cancer Institute, 2008, para. 1). It is one of many complicated cancer diseases that affect all ages and have very negative outcomes if not treated properly, and on time. Within the disease are several different types that affect according to how quickly the disease develops and attacks the body. It could be classified as chronic leukemia, which has a slow progress of getting worse or acute leukemia which usually gets worse quickly. The types of leukemia also can be grouped based on the white blood cell that is affected (National Cancer Institute , 2008, p. 1).

This is the term that describes a red blood cell that is of normal size. They usually also have hemoglobin content (medical-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com/Normocytic)

Leukemia is a type of cancer that sadly causes around 25,000 deaths in the U.S. each year. The area that it affects is the blood and the bone marrow and like most or all of the types of cancer in the world if not taken control of early it will most likely kill you.

The Oxford English Dictionary defines blood first and foremost as “The red fluid flowing in the arteries, capillaries, and veins of humans and other vertebrates, carrying oxygen and nutrients to, and carbon dioxide and waste metabolites away from, the organs and tissues of the body. Also (as a count noun): the blood of an individual, species, etc.” (OED). This is the the immediate definition that comes to mind when I take this word into consideration, likely because when you are injured it is the first thing you think of. If hurt, a person often first checks themselves over for any sign of blood, and if they find that they are not they may turn to a friend and ask ‘Am I bleeding?’ It is how we determine if the injury requires special attention

Myeloma is a cancerous disease whose cause is plasma cells, which are one of the four major components that make up blood in a human body. Manufacture of the plasma takes place in the bone marrow and the main function of the plasma is help the body fight infections. Multiple myeloma is another name for myeloma in fact it is the more recognized name. The plasma of a healthy human body is responsible for the production of antibodies, which fight disease-causing infections. The plasma of a diseased human body with myeloma causes the uncontrollable multiplication of these plasma cells. The myeloma affects these plasma cells to extent that they start to produce one antibody, which is nonfunctioning

Jacalyn Duffin traced back to Aristotle’s writing to find the earliest mention of sweating blood. The most common sites for sweating blood were the forehead, scalp, face, eyes, and ears. Patients experienced a slight pain while sweating blood, while others experienced headaches and hypertension. “Although it’s horrible to look at and horrible to suffer, it seems not to be associated with negative outcomes,” (Duffin 12). The blood was tested for signs of coagulation, and surprisingly there were none. "Suddenly your adrenaline goes up and if your adrenaline goes up, maybe it does something to the microvasculature -- your tiny capillaries -- in your skin that causes them to shrink or explode," (Duffin 20). This unproven scenario could be one cause of bleeding

Hemophilia is a bleeding disorder that slows down the blood clotting process. People who have hemophilia often have longer bleeding after an injury or surgery. People who have severe hemophilia have spontaneous bleeding into the joints and muscles. Hemophilia occurs more commonly in males than in females.

Leukemia is a type of cancer. Cancer is a group of more than 100 diseases that have two or more important things in common. One is that certain cells in the body become abnormal. Another is that the body keeps producing large numbers of these abnormal cells. Leukemia is cancer of the blood ce3lls. When leukemia develops the body produces large numbers of abnormal blood cells. In most types of leukemia, the abnormal blood cells and they do not
