    Study Notes

    Hematology Basics

    • Hematology is the study of blood cells and coagulation.
    • Hematology analyses include complete blood count (CBC), blood chemistry tests, and coagulation studies.

    Components of Blood

    • Blood refers to a liquid tissue that circulates in the body, consisting of plasma and formed elements (red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets).
    • Plasma is the liquid portion of blood, making up about 55% of total blood volume.
    • Serum is the liquid portion of blood that remains after blood has clotted, and all blood cells and clotting factors have been removed.

    Key Terms and Definitions

    • Hematology: the study of blood cells and coagulation.
    • Blood: a liquid tissue that circulates in the body, consisting of plasma and formed elements.
    • Serum: the liquid portion of blood that remains after blood has clotted, and all blood cells and clotting factors have been removed.

    Matching Exercises

    • Hematology: study of blood cells and coagulation
    • Hemostasis: the process of stopping bleeding
    • Erythropoiesis: the production of red blood cells
    • Leukopoiesis: the production of white blood cells
    • Thrombosis: the formation of blood clots
