He also reported pain in his lower back and arms when he walks. Physical examination revealed that the man had pale mucous membranes and hepatosplenomegaly. The physician orders a complete blood count (CBC) and urinalysis (UA). A follow-up appointment is scheduled for the following week. Laboratory Data The CBC revealed that the patient had anemia. His leukocyte count and differential count were normal, except for a rouleaux (rolled coin) appearance of the RBCs. The UA was normal. The patient was called and requested to return to the laboratory for additional tests. The physician ordered an ESR, kidney screening profile, liver blood profile, and radiographic skeletal survey, with the following results: ESR—50 mm/hr Kidney profile—normal Liver profile—normal, except for increased globular protein Skeletal survey—bone lesions in various sites What follow-up laboratory tests…arrow_forward
- “Time to scrub in,” says Dr. Hodges. The appendectomy you are about to observe is your second surgical case in surgical technician school. The patient, David Sims, is an 18-year-old male who was healthy until two days ago when he began having severe abdominal pain, fever, and vomiting resulting in a diagnosis of appendicitis. David is in excellent health and has never had surgery before, so you anticipate the procedure to go smoothly. Your instructor asked the anesthesiologist, Dr. Hodges, if you can observe her today during the procedure. “All of the patient’s vital signs and lab work are within normal limits so we are good to go,” says Dr. Hodges as David is brought into the operating room. You help get David ready by applying the heart monitor, oxygen saturation monitor, and blood pressure cuff. After David has been sedated, Dr. Hodges places a special tube down his esophagus to measure his core body temperature and another in his trachea (an endotracheal tube) to help him breathe…arrow_forward“Time to scrub in,” says Dr. Hodges.

- 9) A husband and wife are both carriers for cystic fibrosis. What are the chances their son will have cystic fibrosis? ______________________________________arrow_forwardA 50-year-old postmenopausal woman has emphysema. This lung disease impairs the ability to oxygenate the blood, so patients experience significant fatigue and shortness of breath. To alleviate these symptoms, oxygen is typically prescribed, and this patient has a portable oxygen tank she carries with her at all times, breathing through nasal cannulae. Before she began using oxygen, her red blood cell (RBC) count was 6.3 x 1012/L. After oxygen therapy for several months, her RBC count dropped to 4.0 x 1012/L. What physiologic response explains the elevation of the first RBC count? What hormone is responsible? How is its production stimulated? What is the major way in which it acts? What explains the decline in RBC count with oxygen therapy for this patient?arrow_forwardA 50-year-old postmenopausal woman has emphysema.

- A lethargic 22-month old black female was presented by her mother to the emergency room at 2:15am on a Sunday. The child had a history of a runny nose, hoarse cough and low-grade fever (-99F) for the past 48 hours. The mother was concerned about the forced and noisy breathing of the child. The pediatrician examined the child and found cloudy eyes and mild inflammation of the ears, but no overt signs of bacterial infection (no significant changes in the eardrums). The throat of the child was red and coated with mucus. The larynx was swollen and raw. The physician performed a rapid Strep test and found it was negative. Throat swabs were taken for culture. The physician placed the child in a room with a warm vaporizer for about 30 minutes. This dramatically improved the breathing of the child. 1. What is the infectious agent that caused this case? 2. Do you believe that this is a bacterial or viral disease? Why? 3. What further treatment is indicated for this case?arrow_forwardThe holidays were exciting for 24 year old Histie. New Year’s Eve came and she partied all night drinking beer and whiskey. While waiting for her friends to arrive, Histie fell on her knees feeling a sharp pain on her chest and suddenly laid unconscious on the floor. Her friends brought her to the emergency department of Tology Hospital, not one hour later. Unfortunately, she was declared dead-on-arrival, and upon autopsy, her cause of death is consistent with that of aneurysm (heart). Histie is a known smoker with a history of alcohol and other drug abuse. 1. Does alcohol and aneurysm have a relationship? Why or why not?arrow_forwardIdentify the tissue shown in the imagearrow_forward
