of Southern Mississippi Abstract Anemia is a decrease in the competence of blood to carry adequate amounts of oxygen to the tissue resulting from an insufficient concentration of hemoglobin (McKenzie & Otto, 2015). The Hemoglobin and hematocrit are used to screen for the presence of anemia. A small sample of blood in a capillary tube is needed for the hematocrit test and an anticoagulated tube of blood is used for the hemoglobin (Hematocrit, 2015). Both of these samples are then looked

CASE STUDIES 1. BLADDER CALCULUS Bladder Calculus is also known as Bladder stone which are generally or basically formed when minerals such as calcium salts and other such as cholesterol and bile pigments inside the bladder lump together and harden. Diet: 1. The diet should be high in fiber such as the diet must include whole grains, fruits and vegetables, etc. 2. The diet should be low in fat and should contain a variety of nutrients rich foods. 3. The diet should have plenty of vegetables

Weight loss and Decreased Appetite in an 11 year old Girl History: A.B. is an 11 year old girl who presents with a 7lb weight loss over 4 months. Additionally, she complains of a 3 week history of decreased appetite. Her primary medical doctor (PMD) referred her to the emergency department after physical exam revealed a palpable abdominal mass encompassing nearly her entire right upper quadrant. A.B. reports non-specific abdominal pain that lasted 2 days, and spontaneously resolved earlier in the

and tightly grasping rosary in her hands. She mentioned to the nurse that she was “afraid to go back to surgery again”. Waiting for surgery can result in increased stress hormones during the preoperative period and may show as increased heart rate, blood pressure and sugar levels (Selimen & Andsoy, 2011).The client was informed that it was common to be anxious and asked if there were any special concerns. She requested to bring her cross into surgery with her, and the nurse confirmed that she could

24 hours after hospital admission, it uses age-related physiological variables estimated during the first day after admission, including: temperature, systolic blood pressure, heart rate, pupillary reflexes, mental status, acidosis, pCO2, pO2, glucose, potassium, creatinine concentration, blood urea, white blood cell count, platelet count, prothrombin and partial thromboplastin time [4]. Early detection of children who are at high risk for mortality gives chance for early changes in therapy and improves

different test involving blood. The objective of the experiment was to test white blood cells (WBC), red blood cells (RBC), platelet counts, differential of WBCs, a hematocrit, a hemoglobin analysis, and also various calculated indices. All the test will indicate if a person’s blood levels are normal or if the person has an abnormal blood count. To explain what blood is, blood is a red liquid that circulates throughout the body. It also transports oxygen rich blood throughout the body, takes

diagnosing anaemia in patients, via a full blood count alongside a blood film. There are many parameters considered, from Haemoglobin levels, white blood counts and platelet counts to full white blood cell counts, also referred to as a full blood count ( FBC ) (Bain, 2006) ;(National Institute of Health, 2012). Doing a full blood count, and examining a blood film, together, helps the haematologist to detect quantitative and qualitative abnormalities, if any, within blood cells. This is a particularly inaccurate

A total of 100 subjects were included in this study, including 50 patients diagnosed as B-CLL, and 50 healthy subjects matched in age and sex as a control group. They were 75% male and 25% female for CLL group,and 70% male and 30% female for control group.The mean of age (in years) for B-CLL patients and healthy subjects was 63.65±9.23and 62.21±6.12, respectively. There were no statistically significant differences between patients and control group as regarding age and sex(P>0.05) . According

this lab was to complete a variety of tests that are involved in determining a complete blood count including; a red blood cell count (RBC count), a white blood cell count (WBC count), a white blood cell differential (WBC differential), hematocrit, hemoglobin, and to calculate the mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC). In order to better understand and perform the tasks of this lab we needed to become more knowledgeable about the background components of blood itself. Blood is a liquid connective
