BLOOD TYPES Inherited from parents
Determined by presence or absence of an antigen on the surface of the red blood cell BLOOD TYPES 2.01 Remember the structures of the circulatory system
14
Check your knowledge of medical history...
In 1901, the Austrian immunologist Karl Landsteiner discovered that blood may be grouped into four main types. Based on the reaction that resulted when blood from different individuals were mixed. 2.01 Remember the structures of the circulatory system
15
BLOOD TYPES Someone with type A antigen has B antibodies
Someone with type B antigen has A antibodies Someone with type AB antigen has no antibodies Someone with type O antigen has A and B antibodies BLOOD TYPES 2.01 Remember the structures of the circulatory system
16
Rhesus (Rh) factor is an inherited trait that refers to a specific protein found on the surface of red blood cells (antigen). Blood used in transfusions must match donors for Rh status as well as for ABO blood type. Although Rh factor doesn't affect the patient’s health, it can affect pregnancy. RH FACTOR 2.01 Remember the structures of the circulatory system
17
In 1940, the Rh factor was discovered as a result of studying Rhesus monkeys.
When blood from monkeys was injected into rabbits and guinea pigs, it clotted. RH FACTOR 2.01 Remember the structures of the circulatory system

ERYTHROBLASTOSIS FETALIS
If the mom gets pregnant again with another Rh + positive, her anti Rh antibodies will attack the baby’s blood, causing ERYTHROBLASTOSIS FETALIS. RHO Gam will destroy any baby blood cells in the mom, & her immune system won’t produce antibodies. 2.01 Remember the structures of the circulatory system

ELECTRICAL CONTROL OF HEART CONTRACTIONS
1. SA (sino atrial) NODE = PACEMAKER Located in right atrium SA node sends out electrical impulse Impulse spreads over atria, making them contract Travels to AV Node 2. AV (atrio ventricular) NODE Conducting cell group between atria and ventricle Carries impulse to bundle of His
30
BUNDLE OF HIS Conducting fibers in septum Divides into R and L branches to network of branches in ventricles PURKINJE FIBERS Impulse shoots along Purkinje fibers causing ventricles to contract

VESSELS OF THE CIRCULATORY SYSTEM
ARTERIES Carry oxygenated blood away from the heart to the capillaries. BRIGHT RED Elastic, muscular and thick-walled Transport blood under very high pressure Arteries > arterioles > capillaries VESSELS OF THE CIRCULATORY SYSTEM 2.01 Remember the structures of the circulatory system
34
VESSELS OF THE CIRCULATORY SYSTEM
VEINS Carry deoxygenated blood away from capillaries to the heart (NO O2 JUST CO2) Veins contain a muscular layer, but less elastic and muscular than arteries Thin walled veins collapse easily when not filled with blood Veins have values that permit flow of blood only in direction of the heart Veins > Venules > Capillaries VESSELS OF THE CIRCULATORY SYSTEM 2.01 Remember the structures of the circulatory system

44
HEMATOMA Localized clotted mass of blood found in an organ, tissue or space Caused by an injury that can cause a blood vessel to rupture HEMOPHILIA Hereditary Missing clotting factor Blood clots slow or abnormally Sex-linked – transmitted genetically from mother to sons Treat with missing clotting factor, avoid trauma THROMBOCYTOPENIA Not enough platelets Blood will not clot properly
