1. DISEASES AND DISORDERS OF BLOOD

2. Anemia Too few erythrocytes or too little hemoglobin molecules.
Hemorrhagic Anemia - due to excessive loss of RBC’s due to bleeding
Aplastic Anemia – inability of red bone marrow to produce erythrocytes

3. Anemia
Iron deficient anemia – body can’t makek hemoglobin molecules w/o enough iron
Pernicious Anemia – deficiency of B12
Hemolytic Anemia – abnormal destruction of erythrocytes

4. Anemia Sickle Cell Anemia - due to abnormal hemoglobin (S-shaped)
causes RBC to bend into a sickle shape

5. Hemolytic Disease of the Newborn
Only infants of Rh- mothers are at risk
Rh incompatibility between mother and newborn infant
Affects second or later children

6. HEMOPHILIA
Hemophilia – sex-linked hereditary disorder of coagulation process (blood will not clot) due to lack of certain clotting factors in the blood (Factor VIII or V)

7. Leukemia Uncontrolled production and accumulation of cancerous WBC’s
May prevent production of normal RBC’s
More common in adults than children
May DEVELOP an uncontrolled infection due to the abundance of immature or abnormal WBC’s that cannot fight infection or disease

8. Infectious Mononucleosis
Contagious disease primarily affecting the lymph tissue but also effecting the blood caused by a virus
May be transmitted in saliva-nicknamed “kissing disease”
Flu-like symptoms, chronic fatigue
Affects a lymphocyte not monocyte

9. Polycythemia Excessive number of erythrocytes
Overproduction of blood cells (usually red blood cells)
Results in increased blood viscosity and elevated blood pressure
Can contribute to thrombosis and hemorrhaging

10. Diseases and Disorders of Cardiovascular System

11. Aneurysm
Abnormal dilation in arterial wall.

12. Arteriosclerosis
Hardening of the arteries related to age and other disease processes.
Atherosclerosis – form of arteriosclerosis – fatty plaques in vessesl

13. Cerebral Vascular Accident (CVA) - Stroke
Sudden impairment of a blood vessel in the brain causing the tissue to die.
Complications vary

14. Coronary Artery Disease
Heart muscle receives inadequate blood and oxygen because of occlusion of coronary arteries

15. CAD Interventions CABG PTCA Stent Drug Therapy Coronary Artery Bypass
Graft
PTCA
Percutaneous
Transluminal
Angioplasty
Stent
Drug Therapy

16. Hypertension High blood pressure Can lead to: Stroke
CAD - atherosclerosis
cardiomegaly - cardiomyopathy
Congestive Heart Failure (CHF)

17. Pulse Points

18. Carotid Pulse

19. Brachial Pulse

20. Radial Pulse

21. Femoral Pulse

22. Popliteal Pulse

23. Dorsal Pedalis Pulse

24. Murmur Defect in Heart valve causing a leakage
Classified by how much leakage

25. Myocardial Infarction (M.I.)
Heart attack
Heart muscle cell death
A condition caused by partial or complete occlusion of one or more of the coronary arteries

26. Diseases and Disorders of the Lymphatic system

27. AIDS Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome
A disease caused by a virus (HIV)
Human Immunodeficiency Virus
Destroys T-Cells (Helper)
Four stages
Victim dies from infection by another opportunistic disease
pneumonia - Kaposi’s sarcoma
dementia - AIDS Wasting Syndrome

28. Measles Also known as rubeola Highly contagious Koplik’s spots appear
Flu-like symptoms
Vaccines help

29. Mumps Viral infection affecting parotid salivary glands
Greatest complication -- infertility

30. MUMPS

31. Rubella
An acute infectious disease resembling both scarlet fever and measles but differing from them in that it has a short course, slight fever, and is free from sequelae.
Also known as German Measles

32. Tetanus
An acute infectious disease due to the toxin Clostridium Tetani growing anaerobically at the site of the injury. May cause lockjaw and muscle paralysis.
