A test done to see the clotting time for a patient
In the clotting lab, the thromboplastin mimics…
The Extrinsic Pathway
In the clotting lab, the APPT reagent mimics…
The Intrinsic Pathway
In the clotting lab, which pathway was the faster clotting? Why?
Extrinsic
This pathway is the response for trauma
What is iron deficiency anemia?
A condition where the body cannot make enough RBC due to a lack of iron needed to make hemoglobin
What is sickle cell disease?
A hereditary condition that causes hemoglobin to stiffen up with oxygen, forming crescent shaped RBC
What is sickle cell trait?
