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. Red






2. PPSC - Rubriblast - Prorubricyte - Rubricyte - Metarubricyte - Polychromatophilic - Mature RBC






3. Blue-grey inclusion in the cytoplasm that is irregular in shape






4. Leukocytopenia or leukopenia






5. Cytauxzoon sp.






6. Decreased concentration: over hydration






7. segmented nucleus






8. Test for fibrinolysis specifically the amount of FDP






9. Mycoplasma haemofelis (hemobartonella felis)






10. Prostaglandins in cell wall - bacterial products - infectious and non-infectious inflammatory processes






11. New Anemia -Decrease production anemia






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






13. VIII and vWB






14. Increased concentration: dehydration






15. hereditary or acquired






16. Acid citrate dextrose (21 days) - citrate phosphate dextrose (21 days) - citrate phosphate dextrose with adenine (35 days)






17. Rouleaux or agglutination






18. High - because hormones trigger a hyper immune state.






19. Between endothelial cells; they sit until demand from tissue






20. Normocytic






21. doesn't last that long






22. 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






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






24. PPSC differentiates into a rubriblast -Increase in hemoglobin synthesis -Early release of immature RBCs if needed






25. Hyperproteinemia - salt retention in CHF or iartrogenic






26. Cytoplasm appears to have a more blue color than usual






27. Yes b/c they spill into the bloodstream

34. Neutrophil - eosinophil - basophil






35. (PCV x 10)/RBC






36. Perform 2 or more of the test






37. w/o anemia






38. Factor VIII and von Willibrand (vWB) factor by endothelial cells






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






40. Kidney






41. Mean Corpuscular Hb Concentration - gives us the amount of Hb






42. Coagulation studies






43. RBC morphology - WBC morphology - and platelets






44. Eccentric nucleus with low N:C ratio - very clear perinuclear halo; only seen in birds and reptiles






45. Nuclear and cytoplasmic






46. WBC- defense - RBC- O2 transport - Plts- platelet plug






47. Hyperchromic






48. 55-85%; 15-45%; 0-5%; rare
