and starting and ending times.
9
_______h. Adjust the infusion rate and continue to monitor the patient every 30 minutes for up to
an hour after the product is infused.
8
_______i. Infuse the first 50 mL over 15 minutes, staying with the patient.
7
_______j. Obtain the patient’s vital signs before starting the transfusion.

PART 5: EXPLAIN THE FOLLOWING LABORATORY FINDINGS IN ANEMIA 8

FINDING EXPLANATION
Reticulocyte counts are increased in chronic The hypoxia resulting from loss of RBCs in
blood loss but decreased in cobalamin chronic blood loss stimulates the kidney to
(vitamin B12) deficiency. release erythropoietin, stimulating production of
RBCs and reticulocytes. However, in pernicious
anemia, normal reticulocytes are not
produced because of the lack of cobalamin.

Bilirubin levels are increased in sickle cell Sickle cell anemia is a hemolytic anemia
anemia but are normal in acute blood loss. involving an accelerated RBC breakdown,
leading to increased serum bilirubin levels,
whereas acute blood loss results in loss of
the RBC and the bile pigments from the
body.

Mean corpuscular volume (MCV) is increased The MCV is a determination of the relative size
in folic acid deficiency but decreased in iron- of an RBC and macrocytic anemias, such as
deficiency anemia. folic acid deficiency and cobalamin deficiency,
are characterized by the production of large,
immature RBCs that would reflect an
increased MCV. In iron-deficiency anemia, the
MCV is low because of the lack
of Hgb in the cells.

PART 6: CASE STUDY: Blood Transfusion

Jerry is to receive one unit of packed red cells because he has a hemoglobin level of 8 g/dL and
a diagnosis of gastrointestinal bleeding.

1. Before initiating the transfusion, the nurse needs to check:


a. for the abnormal presence of gas bubbles and cloudiness in the blood bag.
b. that the blood has been typed and crossmatched.
c. that the recipient’s blood numbers match the donor’s blood numbers.
d. all of the above.

2. Administration technique should include all of the following except:


a. adding 50 to 100 mL of 0.9% NaCl to the packed cells to dilute the solution and
speed up delivery of the transfusion.
b. administering the unit in combination with dextrose in water if the patient needs
additional carbohydrates.
c. administering the unit of blood over 1 to 2 hours.
d. squeezing the bag of blood every 20 to 30 minutes during administration to mix
the cell.

3. The nurse is aware that a transfusion reaction, if it occurs, will probably occur:
a. 1 to 2 minutes after the infusion begins.
b. during the first 15 to 30 minutes of the transfusion.
c. after half the solution has been infused.
d. several hours after the infusion, when the body has assimilated the new blood
components into the general circulation.

4. If a transfusion reaction occurs, the nurse should:


a. call the physician and wait for directions based on the specific type of reaction.
b. stop the transfusion immediately and keep the vein patent with a saline or
dextrose solution.
c. slow the infusion rate and observe for an increase in the severity of the reaction.
d. slow the infusion and request a venipuncture for retyping to start a second
transfusion.
