BF, a 37-year-old male, is scheduled for a same-day surgical procedure for hernia repair. He has no history of significant medical problems, with the exception of injuries received during his service in the military. He was given 6 units of blood following a land mine explosion 4 years ago. At that time, his transfusions were uneventful. A sample for a "type and screen" was sent to the laboratory on the morning of the procedure. The following results were obtained.

Melinda was working the day shift in the hematology laboratory. The laboratory’s protocol called for three levels of blood cell controls to be run at the following times: 1) at the beginning of the shift, 2) within each run of patient samples during the day and 3) any times reagents were changed. The mean for the low (abnormal) control for the red blood cell count was given as 2.00 x 10^12/L, the standard deviation was 0.15, and the confidence limit (acceptable control range) was 2.00 x 10^12/L +/- 2sd (or +/- 0.3). The first morning low control result was 2.10 (x 10^12/L). In five subsequent runs, the low control results were 2.16, 2.19, 2.20, 2.22 and 2.25. 1. Do these values represent a shift, a trend, or neither? 2. Should Melinda be concerned about these values? Explain. 3. Does Melinda need to take any action?
A 60-year-old woman with anemia is admitted to the hospital. Her hematocrit is 17% and she has been experiencing subtle gastrointestinal bleeding over many weeks. Her physician requests 4 units of red blood cells for transfusion. The patient’s RBCs phenotyped as group AB, D-positive. Her antibody screen is negative on the sample drawn in the emergency room, but her records indicate a previously detected anti-E. Only three group AB, D-positive red blood cell units are available in the blood bank’s inventory. The blood bank’s inventory contains RBC donor units of all ABO and D types.Having located 6 E-negative donor units, you perform crossmatching on the units. One of the units is incompatible in the antiglobulin phase (2+). The physician is becoming insistent on beginning the transfusion, since the patient is having some shortness of breath.How do you respond to the physician’s request?List several reasons to explain the one incompatible donor unit.What additional testing do you…

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…
An elderly couple was killed in an accident. No surviving relatives are known, so their estate have been willed to chasrity. Later, a man claims that he is their child. Although friends of the couple knew that they had a son, no record of this can be found. Medical records show that the dead man was A Rh’, his wife was B Rh- and the claimant’s blood tests as O Rh’. Does it appear that his claim is valid? Justify your conclusion. A student in genetics is B’. She reports that her father is B- and her mother is O’. Give this student’s genotype for the ABO and Rh blood types.
A patient requires a blood transfusion after experiencing blood loss due to a traumatic injury. The patient's record lists their blood type as B+, Out of the following available options in the blood bank, what is the best type of donor blood to give to this patient? O Type A blood with antibodies removed via centrifugation O Type O- blood with antibodies removed via centrifugation Type AB+ blood with antibodies removed via centrifugation O Type O- whole blood
Why is DNA testing used for a patient with sickle cell anemia?
A woman in labor is bleeding, has a very high fever, and is in danger of losing the fetus. Laboratory results include a platelet count of 15 x 109/L (normal platelet count = 150 - 450 x 109/L), prolonged PT and aPTT, decreased fibrinogen, and increased D-dimer. Her automated blood count flagged for blood smear review and the cells indicated by the arrows were seen on her peripheral smear along with a decrease in the number of platelets present. What condition is suggested by these results? Please select the single best answer Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) Hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) Disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) Glanzmann thrombasthenia (GT)
Xin’s blood was drawn and testing was conducted. His hematocrit was 45% and white-blood cell count was 2,500 white-blood cells/mm3, with the differential showing neutrophils 65%, lymphocytes 25%, monocytes 10%. A biopsy was taken of one of the discolored lesions and cell culture. After three days of growth the cells were confirmed as coming from malignant cancerous tissue. A magnetic resonance image (MRI) of the area around the skin lesions on Xin’s inner thigh revealed enlarged lymph nodes, a sign of potential metastasis. DNA sequencing of the lesion biopsy revealed DNA consistent with human herpesvirus 8, known as Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus, leading to the diagnosis of Kaposi’s sarcoma. - What Disorders can be ruled in and out from this diagnosis?
A 10-month-old Central American child was referred to the laboratory for testing after being seen by a pediatrician. The phlebotomist noted that the child was very pale and listless. The laboratory tests results: Hb 5.6 g/dl Hct 24% RBC 3.5 X 109/L WBC 10.5 X109/L MCV 68.6fL МСН 1бpg 23g/dl МСНС Platelet count 200 X 109/L Reticulocyte count 0.5% 465 µg/dl 40 µg/dl 0.9 mg/dl TIBC Serum iron Total serum bilirubin Saturation of transferrin 8.6% The blood film for this patient was showed like the following
Wendy Marawi, a 35-year-old cancer patient, recently underwent a bone marrow transplant. During her teleconsultation with her doctor, she complains that she has been experiencing nausea and bowel movement discomfort, and she cannot sleep at night due to fever.
