Question
Chapter 10, Problem 24P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The simplest and highly rapid test that can be performed to determine deficiency of factor VIII activity in the patient is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
A factor whose deficiency in the blood inhibits the blood clotting and causes the continuous bleeding is known as factor VIII. The factor VIII is called anti-hemophilic factor. Basically, the deficiency of factor VIII causes the bleeding disorder.

Cold-Reacting Autoantibodies.
Most adult sera contain low titers of cold-reacting autoantibodies, most notably autoanti-I, autoanti-H, and autoanti-IH. These antibodies are usually IgM and of no clinical significance. They are troublesome in that they may interfere with the detection of significant antibodies, resulting in prolonged workups and delayed transfusions.Cold-reacting autoantibodies may be suspected when the screen cells, panel cells, and the autocontrol areall positive at the immediate spin phase and reactivity gets weaker or disappears with incubation at 37°C (Fig. 9–18).Certain cold autoantibodies activate complement and may be detected at the AHG phase when using complement-containing AHG reagent. These autoanti- bodies may be mistaken for weakly reacting IgG antibodies.Although it is not usually necessary to determine the specificity of the cold autoantibody, testing against additional cells may confirm its presence. Cord blood cells that lack the I antigen are of…

Congratulation. You just graduated and obtained a job as an RN at NYU Medical Center. A patient comes in complaining of
nausea, vomiting and weakness. You obtain the vital signs: T 90, P 90,R 20 and BP 100/70.His weight is 130lb and BSA is 2.60
m2. After history and physical examination, the physician ordered an infusion. The order reads: a drug 100mg/m2 IVPB IN
250mL of Normal Saline infuse over 3hours.The drug is available in a vial labeled 60mg/ml. At what rate in mL/h should the
pump be set?

Individuals having an acute exposure to toluene diisocyanate is more likely to develop hypersensitivity then individuals chronically exposed to low vapor levels. c. A mechanism for this hypersensitivity is the toluene diisocyanate forms a covalent bond with proteins that are part of the airway resulting in the immune system developing a response to “self” proteins. d.
