Blood Work Case Study
Vet's wife called into renal today to see if vet really needs to get his blood work that was ordered by Dr. Reddy, since he had 8 tubes of blood obtained via Zangmiesters Clinic? Informed Mrs. Dunham, that we have not received the results from this outside company as of yet. She can call them to have them faxed, because we are not sure as to what was ordered by them.
Mr. Dunham was very adamant by not having blood work drawn, if he has already completed the blood work that she wants.
Again, reminded her that we have no way of knowing what was ordered via this company.

Mrs. Dunham will follow up later.

Time spent on phone call 10 minutes.

    You are the nurse working in an anticoagulation clinic. K.N. is a patient who has a longstanding irregularly irregular heartbeat (atrial fi brillation, or A-fi b) for which he takes the oral anticoagulant warfarin (Coumadin). Recently, K.N. had his mitral heart valve replaced with a mechanical valve. You know that there are different PT/INR (prothrombin time/International Normalized Ratio) goal recommendations based on the indication for anticoagulation. (NOTE: PT has now been replaced by or is reported, in most cases, with INR [International Normalized Ratio], an international value that allows for laboratory standardization. PTT is more properly written aPTT [activated partial thromboplastin time]; however, PTT is still in common clinical use.) A-fi b carries an INR therapeutic goal range of 2.0 to 3.0. Mechanical valves in the mitral position are considered at greater thromboembolic risk than the aortic site. Therefore K.N. will need his PT/INR to be kept at the higher goal range of 2.5 to 3.5. K.N. calls your anticoagulation clinic to report a nosebleed that is hard to stop. He asks to come into the offi ce to check his clotting time. When you get the results, his INR is critical at 7.2. The provider has asked you to inform the patient that the level is too high.…

    Anemia is a disease state that is characterized by a reduction of hemoglobin (Hb) or volume of red blood cells (RBC’s). The reduction in Hb or RBC’s leads to diminished oxygen carrying ability of the blood. Many forms of anemia exist – the anemias discussed will be relevant to our patient, JJ, based on her signs/symptoms and past medical history (PMH). Anemia can be classified based on the appearance or size of the RBC. The size of the RBC can be determined by either calculating the mean corpuscular volume (MCV) of the RBC based on hematocrit and…

    Red Brand Canners was a medium-size company that was specialised in canning and distributing a variety of fruit and vegetable products under private brand names in the western states of the US. On Monday, September 13th, Mitchell Gordon, Vice-President of Operations, asked the Controller, the Sales Manager, and the Production Manager of Red Brand Canners to meet with him to discuss the amount of tomato products to pack that season. The tomato crop, which had been purchased at planting, was beginning to arrive at the cannery. Packing operations would have to start by the following Monday because, after this time, the fruit would begin to deteriorate. In effect this ruled out the possibility of reselling any part of the crop which, if it remained unpacked, would be worthless. William Cooper, Controller, and Charles Myers, Sales Manager, were the first to arrive in Mr. Gordon's office. Dan Tucker, Production Manager, came in a few minutes later and said that he had picked up Produce Inspection's latest estimate of the quality of the incoming tomatoes. According to the report, about 20% of the 3,000,000 pound crop was Grade “A” and the remaining portion Grade “B”. Mr. Gordon asked Mr. Myers about the demand for tomato products for the coming year. Mr. Myers replied that they could sell all of the whole canned tomatoes they could produce. The expected demand for tomato juice and tomato paste, however, was limited. The Sales Manager then passed around the latest demand forecast (Table 1) reminding the group that selling prices had been set in light of long-term marketing strategy of the company, and that potential sales had been forecast at these prices. After looking at Mr. Myers’ estimates of demand, Mr. Cooper said that it looked as though the company, "should do quite well on the tomato crop this year". With the new accounting system that had been set up, he had been able to compute the cost for each product, and according to his…

    William Osler once said “Medicine is the science of uncertainty and the art of probability.” While this quote was said nearly one-hundred years ago, it still holds the same weight as is once did. In Bloodletting and Miraculous Cures by Vincent Lam, this quote is shown to not only be true in regards to medicine, but also for people as a whole; even so there are many factors that contribute to a person’s personality early on that can be traced to decisions and personality traits later in their lives. One of these factors is the amount of interaction and influence a person’s family has with them. In Bloodletting and Miraculous Cures, there are two extreme examples that can be examined: Ming and Fitzpatrick. In both cases, there are positive and negative effects of their varied familial influence.…

    In “Bloodchild” by Octavia E. Butler, slavery is a recurring theme throughout the short story. The Tlic are portrayed as the more dominant race, while the humans, or Terrans, are more submissive. Terrans must give one of their children to a Tlic in order to be able to nurture their own human children. Gan’s mother decides to sacrifice one of her children to a Tlic named T’Gatoi, because of their childhood friendship and the political power T’Gatoi holds. Gan always knew he would be the chosen one to give birth to T’Gatoi’s children. After witnessing Lomas, a Terran, give birth to an alien, Gan is terrified and doesn’t want to be the vessel for T’Gatoi anymore. T’Gatoi threatens Gan by telling him if he does not agree to be her vessel, she will impregnate his sister instead. Wanting to protect his sister from the pain of giving birth to an alien, Gan agrees to be impregnated by T’Gatoi.…
