Test your basic knowledge |

Veterinary Hematology Technology

Instructions:
  • Answer 50 questions in 15 minutes.
  • If you are not ready to take this test, you can study here.
  • Match each statement with the correct term.
  • Don't refresh. All questions and answers are randomly picked and ordered every time you load a test.

This is a study tool. The 3 wrong answers for each question are randomly chosen from answers to other questions. So, you might find at times the answers obvious, but you will see it re-enforces your understanding as you take the test each time.
1. Actually fibrinogen increases before WBCs increase






2. Nodular: walled off - diffuse: deep in tissues






3. True deviation in the amount






4. Jugular- 18ga - tail vein- 20 or 18ga






5. Ad: speedy collection - no exchange of glass into blood; dis: cell trauma d/t vacuum - breakable - glass activates coagulation factors - component separation more difficult






6. Obs = # retics/1000 x 100 COR = (Pt PCV/ Average PCV) x observed % Abs = # retics/1000 x RBC ct






7. Distilled water on refractometer or an uncalbrated refractometer






8. Saline wash






9. Howell-Jolly Bodies






10. Hyperproteinemia - salt retention in CHF or iartrogenic






11. w/o anemia






12. Anisocytosis






13. Primary hemostasis and plt number






14. Bleed them out






15. Red ring - blue ring - and black ring tubes






16. Structural matrix - ground work for a cell - acts as transporters and carriers






17. Dog-88ml/kg - cat- 66ml/kg






18. 1 year; bleeding disorders (hemophila) - gives passive immunity (Parvo)






19. Dog






20. Small quantities - more fragile cells -RBC are nucleated -Thrombocytes instead of platelets -Polychromasia is common -Heterophils replace neutrophils -Basophils are non segmented






21. .98mls to .02mls






22. Dark purple-magenta granular inclusions in the cytoplasm; endotoxins - toxicemia






23. segmented nucleus






24. Monocyte with a RBC inside it due to the monocyte engulfing it






25. Oval with raisin-like nucleus






26. PCV - TP - Plasma evaluation - directly from patient






27. Cells that are dead; have clumps of what used to be nucleus






28. B lymphocytes and T lymphocytes; B are used for antibody production; T are used for hypersensitivity reactions - elimination of intracellulaar organisms - elimination of abnormal tissues






29. Ad: non-breakable - no vacuum - no activation of coagulation factors - component separation is easier; dis: migration of plastic into blood - slower collection






30. 450 mls; 56 mls






31. In bone marrow; matures - +/- bands






32. Clot that breaks off from its origin place and lodges somewhere else






33. But temporary






34. Red (hemolytic) - yellow (icteric) - and white (lipemic)






35. Vacuoles in cytoplasm with foaminess- can see pits on 100x






36. Azurophilic granules in the cytoplasm






37. Black ring has a smaller diameter






38. Water - its function is thermoregulation - lubrication - transporter and chemical reactions






39. New Anemia -Decrease production anemia






40. Jugular- 20ga






41. Antigen or foreign protein






42. Dark - dense segmented nucleus






43. Thrombin - platelets






44. Liver and lymphoid tissue






45. Causes an increase in RBCs. NO EPO involved.






46. 5 -000 -000-10 -000 -000/microliter; 5 -000 -000-11 -000 -000/microliter






47. Cat






48. BLV - bovine leukemia virus






49. BM aspirate or BM core biopsy






50. Amount is the same it just looks different (ex fish pond)
