Answer the first and second question A device called a hemocytometer is used to measure the amount of hemoglobinpresent. Red blood cells can concentrate hemoglobin to about 34 g/100 mL of blood.Readings below 15 g/100 mL of blood indicate anemia.

BACKGROUND A 2-year-old black girl is being seen by the hematologist after her pediatrician found her to be severely anemic with splenomegaly and jaundice. Her mother gives a possible history of a “blood problem” in her family but doesn’t know for sure. Her hemoglobin electrophoresis was normal, and the complete blood count (CBC) revealed a normocytic anemia. The platelet and white blood cell counts are normal. On the peripheral smear, there are many bizarre erythrocytes, including spiculated cells. A diagnosis of pyruvate kinase deficiency is made. Pyruvate kinase deficiency (PKD) can be inherited in an autosomal recessive manner, which means that a child must inherit a gene with the disease-causing mutation from both parents in order for the disorder to be inherited. The PLKR gene regulates the synthesis of the pyruvate kinase enzyme, which is located in the liver and red blood cells. Pyruvate kinase deficiency (PKD) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by the premature…

Hemodynamic Monitoring Case Study: A 67-y.o woman is admitted to the ICU with a dx. of hypotension of unknown origin. She is presently unresponsive but is breathing spontaneously on her own. Lungs are clear, urinary output is 15ml in 8 hours, and her skin is cool. A PA catheter is inserted to obtain more information and guide therapy. The following information is revealed: BP 86/54mmHg PAWP 4mmHgP 118/min CVP 2mm/HgRR 30 breaths/min SVR 1393 dynesC.O. 3.5 L/min PVR 195 dynesC.I. 1.9 L/min SvO2 50%PA 24/10mmHg Which Values tell us about this patient's filling pressures/fluid status? Are these values adequate? Which Values tell us about this patient's contractility? Are these values adequate? Which values tell us about this patient’s vascular resistance? What is causing this patient's hypotension? Which initial therapy is appropriate?
