Michael Allen is a 25-year-old male cancer client who is currently undergoing multiple rounds of chemotherapy. His chemotherapy treatment has caused him to have abnormally low amounts of erythrocytes, leukocytes, and thrombocytes. His hospitalization treatment orders include being placed in protective isolation and receiving blood transfusions of packed red blood cells. In order to prepare for the transfusion, the lab draws a blood sample for a type and crossmatch. Michael's blood type is identified as O+. (Learning Objectives 3, 4, 5, 6) 1. What types of blood could this client receive? Is his blood type the most advantageous blood type for receiving blood transfusions? If not, what type is? 2. Neutrophils and lymphocytes are similar in that they are both types of leukocytes and both fight infection. Describe the ways that these two types of leukocytes are different. 3. Describe the clotting process. Why is this client at risk for hemorrhage?
