    Study Notes

    Viral Diseases and Hematology

    • Certain viral diseases cause high titers of cold antibodies, including Infectious Mononucleosis.
    • Mumps, Measles, Hepatitis, and Acquired Immunodeficiency Virus are not typically associated with high titers of cold antibodies.

    Bleeding Time Test

    • The Bleeding Time Test assesses Coagulation, endothelial, and platelet function.
    • It does not solely assess Coagulation function or platelet number.

    Platelet Disorders

    • Von Willebrand Disease is a disorder associated with platelets not adhering to subendothelial collagen when a blood vessel is injured.
    • Leukemia, Thrombocytosis, Thrombocytopenia, and Venous Thromboembolism diseases are not characterized by this specific platelet dysfunction.

    Red Blood Cell Disorders

    • Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency is a condition characterized by hemolysis of red blood cells following exposure to oxidative stress.

    ABO Grouping

    • Using infected serum in ABO grouping can result in false negative reactions.
    • It is not a guarantee of false positive reactions.

    Coagulation Factors

    • Factors XII, XI, IX, and X are involved in the Intrinsic Pathway of coagulation.
    • Valine replaces glutamic acid in the sixth position of β-globin chain of hemoglobin in sickle cell disease.

    Bombay Phenotype

    • Antibodies A, B, and H are found in the serum of individuals with the Bombay phenotype.

    Leukemia Diagnosis

    • Bone marrow aspirations are used in the laboratory for conclusive diagnosis of Leukemia.
    • Peripheral blood smears, computed tomography, and venous blood are not conclusive diagnostic tools for Leukemia.

    Hematological Disorders

    • Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency is a hematological disorder characterized by bite and blister cells in the peripheral thin blood smear.
    • Aplastic anaemia, Pernicious anaemia, Chronic blood loss, and Iron deficiency anaemia are not characterized by this specific type of blood smear.

    Iron Deficiency Anaemia

    • Total Iron Binding Capacity is raised in an individual with Iron Deficiency Anaemia.
    • MCV, MCH, Serum Iron, and Serum ferritin are not typically raised in this condition.

    Acquired Immune System

    • Lymphocytes are the major component of the acquired immune system.
    • Skin, Lysozyme, Macrophages, and Normal flora bacteria are not the primary components of the acquired immune system.

    ABO Blood Grouping

    • Cold Agglutinin, Infected red cells, and Rouleaux formation can cause false negative results in ABO Blood Grouping.
    • Infected serum can cause false negative reactions, but it is not a guarantee of false negative results.

    Fibrinolytic System

    • Plasminogen, plasminogen activator, and plasmin are involved in the Fibrinolytic system.
    • Platelets, Adenosine Diphosphate, and platelet inhibitor are not directly involved in this system.

    Vasoconstriction

    • Thromboxanes and serotonin are mediators of vasoconstriction in primary haemostasis.
    • Platelets aggregation, ADP, and thrombokinase are not primary mediators of vasoconstriction.

    Haemostasis

    • Vascular system, platelets, coagulation, and fibrinolytic are the major components of haemostasis.
    • White blood cells and serotonin are not primary components of haemostasis.

    Haemolytic Disease of a Newborn

    • ABO incompatibility can occur when the mother is blood group O and the newborn is group A or B.
    • This is not the only possible scenario, but it is a common one.

    Compatibility Test

    • The Direct Antiglobulin test is used to detect in vivo sensitization of Red blood cells.
    • Fragility test, Haemolysin test, Capillary resistance test, and Indirect antiglobulin test are not used for this purpose.
