Term
What are the Lymphoid and Myloid cells and what do they do?
Definition
Lymphoin and Myeloid are mulitpotent stem cells. Lymphoid= T,B & Natural Killer. Myloid= Platelets, erythrocytes & monocytes.
Term
What does Leukopenia mean?
Definition
Decreased in all WBC problems= infection
Term
What does Neutropenia mean?
Definition
Decrease in ONLY neutriphils
Term
What is Aplastic Anemia?
Definition
Decreased in ALL myeloid stem cells you loose granulocytes, RBC & platelets
Term
Where does Mononucleosis come from?
Definition
EBV in saliva effects B cells
Term
What does that mean to you? What do b cells do?
Definition
B cells are plasma/ memory cells= Plasma cells make antibodies, because B cells are effected you will have problems with antibody/antigen complex.
Term
Deifference b/t Leukemoa & Lymphoma?
Definition
  • Leukemia= WBC are formed and differentiated in bone marrow, now neoplasma arise in bone marrow= leukemia
  • WBC travel to Lymphoid organs to mature, neoplasma arise here are lymphomas, Lymphomas are less malignant because they are more differianted.
Term
Difference b/t non Hodkins vs Hodkins
Definition
  • Non- Hodkins effect B&T cells, more common & aggressive respond better to treatment because of high growth rate.
  • Hodkin Progressive invasion of lymohoid classified by Reed Sternberg Cells (malignant B cells)
Term
What are the S/S of Leukemia?
Definition
Patient will have bone pain and rist of fracture d/t WBC grows in bone Marrow. Anemia d/t no RBC. Thrombocytopenia d/t no platelets, Immuno suppression d/t no WBC. Patient will then be SOB/ Fatigues. Leukemia can be a s/e of Chemotherapy.
Term
When you have Leukemia you get abdnormal WBC build up in bone marrow what problem does this cause?
Definition
When you have too many WBC you wiill release inflammaotry mediators(swelling,fever) infitrated peripheral Lymphoid organs(swollen lymhnodes) increased blood viscosity and this in turn caused problems with kidney and liver.
Term
A chiild with Leukemia has fevers, weak pale,Cervical lymphnodes enlarged, nose bleeds & hyperkalemia.
Definition
Fever d/t increase wbc, pale and fatigued d/t no RBC, Enlarged nodes d/t WBC proliferate, nose bleeds d/t no platelets. hyperkalemia d/t chemo kills pottassium in cells.
Term
What are the two kinds of multiple myloma and what is mulitple myloma?
Definition

Mulitiple myloma is abnormal b-cells proliferation that causes osterolytic bone lesions.

  1. M protien- most common 80%
  2. Bence Jones- excreted thru urine and damages the kidneys their is abnoral interleukin, interferon & colony growth factor
Term
Explain Coagulation
Definition
Occurs when their is injury to the tissue, blood vessels constrict, Cytokines & Platelets are released and come to make a platelet plug
Term
What has to be present to make a platelet plug
Definition
  1. Von Willebran
  2. Thromboxin
  3. Collagen

Once you have plug then cascaude can start

Term
What makes a clot
Definition
Prothrombin- Thrombin- Fibrinogen= Fibrin
Term
The Clot will retract before it can get off what happens?
Definition
Tissue Plasminogen causes plasminogen to turn to plasmin... Plasmin breaks the blot
Term
What upsets platelet function/ clotting activity?
Definition

Hypercoagulbility,

  • increase platelet function
  •  increases clotting activitiy
Term

What are three ways to come up with a platelet disorder?

 

Definition
  1. Decreased production
  2. Breaking down/trapping
  3. Platelets used up in forming clots
Term
Know the difference b/t 2 platelets disorders?
Definition
  1. ITP- Breaking down platelets for unknown reasons, autoimmune type 2 reaction, bruising/bleeding, steroids/ spleenectomy
  2. TTP- Use up platelets caused by enzyme deficiency, rare, Petchiae & Purpura.
Term
Where is Fluid and how does it move around?
Definition
Most fluid is found in the intracellular space. Fluid can be found in intra/ extra space, cells, vessels & tissue. Fluid moves around via osmosis. Water moves from the side that has fewer particles to the side that has more so that it can dilute particles.
Term
What is a Hypertonic soultion?
Definition
Few concentration inside the cell, H20 is pulled out of the cell and the cell shrinks.
Term
What is a hypotonic solution?
Definition
High concentration of solute in cell causes h20 to flow into cell and given for pt who is dehydrated
Term
What is Hydrostatic Pressue
Definition
Is the prssure that pushes fluid out of the cap d/t pressure being excerted on the cell wall.
Term
What is Colloid Osmotic pressure
Definition
Is the prssure that keeps fluid inside of the capilarries, it pulls the fluid to try and dilute self evenly
Term
What maintains your H20 balance and what does it look @?
Definition

Hypothalmus

Serum osmolality & BV, if you have a decrease in B/V you will have increase osmolality

Term
High Osmolaity causes?
Definition
Thirst, Drink, Adh release, water reabsorbed= no urine
Term
Low Osmolaity causes
Definition
n thirst, no drink, decrease ADH urine
Term
Diabetes insipidus what does it look like?
Definition
Decresead ADH production causes increase urine, hypertonic dehydration, Increase sodium, decrease B/v & B/P.
Term
SIADH look like ?
Definition
Failure of hypothalmu, dilutional hyponatremia, excessive ADH decreased urine & sodium, increased B/v & Pressure
Term
What is the import thing about Sodium?
Definition
Nrain & Neurons are concerned about sodium.  Retaining sodium causes increase BP. If you have high sodimm in your blood it pulls H20 from your brain cells. As a nurse you can't give a hypotonic solution in this cause because it would worsed the brain cells and cause swelling= cerebral edema
Term
How Does body compensate on its own?
Definition
Increased blood osmolality causes cells to shrink do to water gets pulled ouf of these cells and into the vascular space, nerve cells produce intracellular osmoles to keep their psmolaity balanced with the blood.... MUST DO SLOW
Term

How is Potassium important in cell resting potential?

  1. Hyperkalemia
  2. HypoKalemia
Definition

1. Serum potassium in blood rises resting potential toward threshold and cells fire more easy have to be concerned about tachydysrythmia

2. Low serum potassium in blood pulls away from the threshold and makes it hard for the cell to fire we are now concerned about braddysrithmia

Term

Potassium and its role as a Buffer

  1. Alkalosis
  2. Acidosis
Definition

1. No enough H+ ion in blood, cells relase H and take in K.. Blood K will now decrease= hypokalemia

2. Too many H ions, cells keep H ion and Relase K, blood K willincrease Hyperkalemia

Term

What does Calcium do?

1. Hypercalcemia?

2. HypoCalcemia?

Definition

Extracellulary they block sodium receprots which then effects neuro transport

  1. Block Na gates nerve less able to fire
  2. Block fewer na gates nerve fire more easily
Term
Major concern with Magnesium?
Definition
Causes life threatening heart arrythmias interdepenant with k+
Term
If you do not have normal PH what will happen.
Definition
Acid base balance has to be normal to hav enormal metabolism
Term
What is exchanges for what to reduce acidity
Definition
K+ exchanges for H+ to reduce acidity
Term
What do lungs and Kidney do in acidic and alkolinic states?
Definition
  • Lungs release C02 in aciditic state, retain co2 in alkalinie state
  • Kidney hangs on to H and release K if acidic, Dump HC03 into urin when alkalinic
Term
  1. Explain Respiratory Acidosis
  2. Explain Respiratory Alkalosis

 

Definition
  1. Excessive C02,hypoventilation, ineffective resp
  2. Decreased C02, Hyperventilation, excessive resp

HIGH CO2 = acidosis

Term

Explain metabolic Acidosis

Explain metabolic Alkalosis

Definition
  1. Decreased HC03/ increased h+=increase lactic acid
  2. Increased HC03/decrease H+
Term

Normal Lab Values- arteriol blood

  1. PH
  2. PACO3
  3. HC03

What kind of PH will you find with Acidosis & Alklosis

Definition
  1. 7.35-7.45
  2. 35-45
  3. 22-26

Low Ph=acidosis nothing to do with 02

High Ph= Alkalosis

Term

  2. High Ph- low C02
  3. Low PH- Low Hc03
  4. High PH- High HCO3
Term

When does compensatin occure?

 

Definition
When Ph returns to normal. The opposite system is trying ti fix imbalance
Term
What is the process of creating RBC?
Definition
Erythopoiesis- tissue Hypoxia/decreased blood 02 causes kidneys to secrete erythopoietin this stimulates bone marrow and a new RBC is created
Term
RBC life Process
Definition
Immature RBC & RETICulocyte= no 02, bone marrow creates new RBC these are now mature 02. Your tetic gets high when you do not have enough 02, this causes tissue hypoxia and then causes the process of RBC production
Term
RBC Process of dying
Definition
Live for 120 days, become damamged, break in cap in spleen, engulfed by WBC creating unconjugated bilirubin= toxic liver can't keep up causes jaundice, connects it to gluconuride now it is conjugated bilirubin and is excreted in bile.
Term
What causes Anemia?
Definition
Blood loss- deficient RBC production- hemolysis
Term

What does Defiecient RBC look like what does it do?

  1. megablastic anemia
  2. Pernisious Anemia
  3. Aplastic Anemia
  4. Chronic disease
Definition

We don't have enough cells or we do and they are not working well.

  1. Increase MCV- you have really big RBC that are not working correctly caused by vit b12 and folic acid deficiency- b12 & folic acid make RBC
  2. lack intrinsic factor, which is needed to absorb b12 to make RBC
  3. Abnormal stem cells replace bonemarrow can't make good cells
  4. Use up resources d/t chronic illness

 

Term
Explain Sickle Cell anemia
Definition
Causes blocked capilarries bed- hemoglobin is deoxygenated caused by tissue ischemia this causes beta chains to link together forming "sickel"
Term

 

Regulates vaso constricting substances

Definition
Brdaykinin, angiotension 2, heparin
Term
Where does gas exchange occure
Definition
Bronchioles & Alveioli
Term

How does breathing work in regaurds to pressure?

  1. Inspiration
  2. Exspiration
Definition

1. Chest exspands first air goes in ,ovement of muscle is what causes uou to breath. Use introcostol to open chest exspand diaphram moving it down. This opens up the air causing MORE SPACE LESS PRESSURE, increase space is what pulls 02 in

2. Let muscles lose chest collapse in, diaphram rise pushes air out INCREASE PRESSURE /DECREASE AIR

Term
Compliance stretch vs recoil
Definition
Normal lungs have to be able to stretch and recoil. Emphysema there is a problem with recoil this keeps the chest exspanded you trap air and then gas exchange can't occure.  Fibrosis lung can't stretch
Term
What does compliance depend on?
Definition
Elastic /collogen fiber, water content & surface tension
Term
What does surfactant do
Definition
Decrease surface tension in alveoli allows me to exspand, prevents alveoli from collapsing during exspiration
Term

Explain Dead space

  • Anatomic dead space
  • Physiologic dead space

 

Definition
  • normal air does not reach exchange level should be 30% tidal volume
  • abnormal air gets to alveolus but no exchange takes place and shunting occurs
  • Anatomic- obstuctive alveoli
  • Physiologic Alveolus dysfunction edema, excessive secretion
Term
Ventilation
Definition
movement of air in and out of  lung
Term

Perfusion

 

Vent <perf=

Per >vent =

Definition

Blood flow- cant have good respiration if you have bad blood flow

  • Dead space air goes in does not exchange=pulm embolism/infraction
  • Blood pass by no place to exchange=tumor/mucous plug
Term
Diffusion
Definition
Have to Have normal alveolus and cap= no edema or secretions
Term

Oxyhemoglobin dissociation curve what is it all about?

  1. High affinity
  2. Low Affinity
  3. Acidotic
  4. Alkalosis
Definition

Based on blood Ph, represents relationship b/t 02 discolved and 02 bound. Affinity refers to capacity of HGB to combine with 02.

1. HGB bind easy does not let go

2.HGB release 02 more easy.. off you go

3. Ph Low, affinity low, HGB let loose shit to right shift to right

4. High PH, High affinity, hold till it is really needed shift to left

Term
What allows c02 to remain within the buffer system
Definition
cabonic anydrase allows to stay in buffer system to keep ph under control
Term

Respiratory control central vs peripheral

  • Central chemoreptors (medulla/pons)
  • Peripheral Chemoreceptros (carotid & aortic bodies)
Definition
  • Measure Ph increase resp when ph decreases. Acidosis high C02 is the stimulus, will only do this for awhile
  • Measure PO2 in arterial blood look for 02 when decreases increases resp rate. Stimulus Hypoxia
Term
Influenza
Definition

Aerosol/direct contact

ifectious 1 day b4 symptoms

Upper phinotracheitis- malaise develp viral pne followed by bacterial infection, rapid onset 3-10days bacterial  infection begins as pt starts to feel better

Term
Pneumonia
Definition
Inflammation of parchynmal structure of lung effect alveoli & bronchials, can be infectious or non start to see mucous-serous exudate
Term
s. Pnemonia
Definition
serous exudate, blood/rust colored exudate causes consolidation causing vent problem and can lead to resp failure
Term
Viral Pne
Definition
Non productive- lowgrade fever- normal wbc- no atb
Term
bacterial Pne
Definition
Productive- fever- high wbc- infiltrates antibiotics
Term
  • Hydrothorax
  • Empysema
  • Chylothorax
  • Hemothorax

How can you get this fluid out?

Definition
  • Serous Fluid
  • Pus-purlent
  • lymph fatty fluid
  • blood

They have to use a tube to drain fluid out...THis is not a chest tube

Term

Pnomothorax

 

  • Spontaneous
  • Tramatice
  • Tension
  • Open

Treatment?

Definition
  • Air that enters the pleural cavity and gets trapped can have partial or complete 
  • Air filled blister
  • injury caused
  • Patient on vent to much air gets put into lung and it pops. Posistive pressure instead of neg in pleural space. Trachea will shift
  • Air enters chest through wall d/t injury

Chest tube to such air out

Term

Atelectasis?

What causes?

Definition
Incomplete exspansion of lung or portion of the lung, causes most times by an obstruction
Term
Fail Chest
Definition
Paradoxial chest exspansion d/t mulitple rib fracture, chest will fall in on self
Term

Definition
Type 1 hypersensitivitiy, mast cells inflamm mediators acute responce w/i 10-20 minutes causes branchospasm,
Term
2 main characteristics of asthma
Definition

D/t mast cell break down

  1. Bronchospasm
  2. increase muscuous w/i Broncho lumen= inflammation
Term

COPD what is cause and 2 types explain

 

Definition

Smoking

  1. emphysema- enlargement of airspace and destruction of lung tissure- lost of alevoli tissue
  2. Chronist obstructive bronchititi- Loss of elastic lung fiber= small airways d/t secretion/ imflammmation
Term
When you have emphysema you have an increase in your neutrphil d/t to inhaled irritants that cause damage  alveoili what is activated to help protect alveoli?
Definition
Alpha-anitrypsin inactives the trypsin before it can damamge the alveoli
Term
Pink Puffers vs Blue Bloaters
