    Study Notes

    Hematologic Disorders and Management Summary

    • Hypernatremia treatment: 5 mEq/hr, glucose & Na monitoring, fluid deficit replacement
    • Euvolemic hypernatremia treatment: Intranasal DDAVP or vasopressin for diabetes insipidus
    • Hyponatremia considerations: Medication-related, isotonic, hypertonic, hypotonic, hypervolemic types
    • Lifespan considerations for sodium concerns: Hypernatremia associated with fever, dehydration, high-solute feedings
    • Complications of hypernatremia: Cognitive dysfunction, seizures, coma, hypovolemic shock
    • Reasons to hospitalize patients with altered sodium levels: Acute hyponatremia, acute-on-chronic hyponatremia, symptomatic hyponatremia
    • Anemia types: IDA, Thalassemia, Aplastic anemia, Hemolytic anemia
    • Management of common anemias: Oral iron for IDA, blood transfusion for Thalassemia, B12 injections for Macrocytic anemia
    • Products affecting dietary iron absorption: Vitamin C, meat, poultry, fish (increase), calcium or magnesium, dairy, antacids, coffee, tea, bran, soy (decrease)
    • Importance of history in coagulation disorder identification: Bleeding history elements, family history, quantifying bleeding, significance of bruising
    • Current recommendations for thrombus prevention: Signs of bleeding or clot progression, diet, mobility, risk reduction counseling
    • Pediatric hematologic disorders and treatments: IDA, thalassemia, lead poisoning, sickle cell disease, bleeding disorders, thrombophilia
