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. Increase in RBCs






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






3. EDTA because you wont have stainging variation






4. Microcytic






5. BTT






6. NRBC






7. present in the blood






8. In bone marrow; metamyelocytes and bands






9. Prothrombin time






10. Primary Hemostasis- plt plug - Secondary Hemostasis- fibrin clot - Fibrinolysis- breakdown of clot






11. Recycle old RBCs - engulf bacteria - clean up any major messes






12. Thrombocytopenia






13. 2 gtts donor RBC suspension and 2 gtts donor plasma






14. Peripheral Blood - Bone Marrow






15. Stomatocyte






16. Free or Unbound TPO






17. It is separated after 6 hours and fresh frozen is before 6 hours






18. Immatures - hypersegmented neutrophils - pyknosis; toxic neutrophils






19. segmented nucleus






20. Extrinsic - Intrinsic - common






21. Oxylate Which binds with calcium to prevent coagulation.






22. Adequate size and WBC distribution






23. Plt estimate - plt count - BMBT - ACT






24. Lymphocyte - monocyte






25. Jugular- 20ga






26. RBC morphology - WBC morphology - and platelets






27. Use simplate device to make an incision into upper lip - start timer - using filter paper dab site (dont wipe) every 10 seconds until bleeding stops. Normal range: 1-3min in dogs and cats






28. Lrg clusters of plasma cells in BM aspirate -lytic bone lesion -monoclonal gammopathy -bence jones proteinuria






29. Circulating pool; mature granulocytes; 6-8 hours






30. Echinocytes






31. Large amounts to be effective - not long lasting - pricey






32. Anterior vena cava- 16ga 3-3.5 inches - ear vein- 21ga butterfly






33. Uncontrolled growth arising from blood or blood forming organs






34. 39-55 -30-36






35. Dif Quick - DipStat - Wright's stain






36. 1.000






37. Secondary hemostasis specifically intrinsic and common pathways






38. Ehrilichia - babesia - RMSF - borrelia - brucella - dirofilaria






39. Keratocyte






40. Acanthocytes






41. Breakdown of a clot






42. Vascular part - platelet plug






43. IMHA - clostridium hemolyticum






44. Hypoxia w/o anemia and glucocorticoids






45. Neovascularization






46. RBC tumor - RBC replicating uncontrollably. EPO is not involved.






47. Hemotomas - bleeding into muscle joints/body cavities and delayed bleeding after venipunture






48. Shaking - too small needle with too much negative back pressure - rocker tray too long - water in syringe - freezing and thawing - squirting into tube - spinning too fast or too long






49. DIC - Warfarin toxication; within 6 hours; platelets and clotting factors






50. Immediate hypersensitivity or delayed hypersensitivity
