Summary Introduction
To analyze:
The significance of the technique of blood transfusion in blood doping.
Introduction:
The compounds that are used as performance enhancers by increasing strength, endurance, and energy are termed as anabolic-androgen steroids (AAS). These drugs are used as doping agents in athletic activities and in bodybuilding to increase muscle mass.

Students have asked these similar questions
Endurance athletes sometimes try an illegal method of blood doping called autologous transfusion. Some blood from the athlete is removed well before competition, and then transfused back into the athlete just before competition. (a) Why might blood transfusion benefit the athlete? (b) With time, stored red blood cells become depleted in 2,3-BPG. What might be the consequences of using such blood for a blood transfusion?
Increasing the volume of the plasma would function to
(A) increase blood viscosity
(B) decrease blood viscosity
Identify the five types of white blood cells in the following micrographs. (a) ___________(b) ___________(c) ___________(d) ___________(e) ___________

- (a) What is a transfusion reaction and why does it happen? (b) What are its possible consequences?arrow_forwardJohn was involved in a serious accident and lost a large volume of blood. His girlfriend, Anne, gave him distilled water while trying desperately to replenish his body fluids. She added the water directly to the blood via one of his veins. (a). How does the water get into John's blood cells? (b). What will the result be? Why?arrow_forwardSeveral years ago, the deaths of several airline travelers led to the warning about “economic-class syndrome.” The idea is that economic-class passengers do not have as much leg room as passengers in more expensive seats, so they are more likely to sit essentially motionless for long periods of flights-conditions that may allow blood to pool and clots to form in the legs. This condition is called deep-vein thrombosis, or DVT. Given what you know about blood flow in the veins, explain why periodically getting up and moving around in a plane’s cabin during a long flight may lower the risk that a cloth will form.arrow_forward

- Your patient is an 85-year-old man with congestive heart failure (CHF). BP = 145/87. He has been very ill and hasn't been eating. A blood test shows that he has hypoproteinemia (low levels of protein in the blood). Would an intravenous (IV) infusion of albumin be an appropriate treatment? Why or why not? Yes, because it would help with blood clotting. No, because it would help with blood clotting. Yes, because it would lead to an increase in blood volume. No, because it would lead to an increase in blood volume. Yes, because it would decrease his blood pressure. No, because it would decrease his blood pressure. Yes, because since he doesn't have enough protein in his blood, you should add more. No, because since he doesn't have enough protein in his blood, you should add more.arrow_forwardWhat is the approximate volume of blood plasma in a lean 60-kg male? In a lean 60-kg female?

If you Google the number of hemoglobin molecules in a RBC, most sources state 250-270 million hemoglobin molecules. If hemoglobin has a molecular weight of 67,000 Da, what is the concentration of hemoglobin in RBCs? Show your work and show your units. Use dimensional analysis to have your final answer in moles per liter. B) The hemoglobin molecule is nearly spherical with a diameter of 55 Angstroms. You can look at the 3D structure of human hemoglobin on the RCSB PDB website.

In part it might be due to blood stasis (not moving) or it may result in combination with endothelial cells damage.
