Summary Introduction
To analyze:
The significance of the technique of blood transfusion in blood doping.
Introduction:
The compounds that are used as performance enhancers by increasing strength, endurance, and energy are termed as anabolic-androgen steroids (AAS). These drugs are used as doping agents in athletic activities and in bodybuilding to increase muscle mass.

Several years ago, the deaths of several airline travelers led to the warning about “economic-class syndrome.” The idea is that economic-class passengers do not have as much leg room as passengers in more expensive seats, so they are more likely to sit essentially motionless for long periods of flights-conditions that may allow blood to pool and clots to form in the legs. This condition is called deep-vein thrombosis, or DVT. Given what you know about blood flow in the veins, explain why periodically getting up and moving around in a plane’s cabin during a long flight may lower the risk that a cloth will form.

BP = 145/87. He has been very ill and hasn't been eating. A blood test shows that he has hypoproteinemia (low levels of protein in the blood). Would an intravenous (IV) infusion of albumin be an appropriate treatment? Why or why not? Yes, because it would help with blood clotting. No, because it would help with blood clotting. Yes, because it would lead to an increase in blood volume. No, because it would lead to an increase in blood volume. Yes, because it would decrease his blood pressure. No, because it would decrease his blood pressure. Yes, because since he doesn't have enough protein in his blood, you should add more. No, because since he doesn't have enough protein in his blood, you should add more.arrow_forward

Salmoneus, who is 60 years old, agrees to deliver Callisto to face charges for war crimes. On the way, their cart crashes down a ravine. Salmoneus has lost a lot of blood. Xena inserts a tube that allows her to transfer her blood to him. Xena is A positive and Salmoneus is O positive. Discuss if this transfusion is expected to be successful and justify your answer. Describe the expected consequences of this transfusion attempt on Salmoneus’s red blood cells.arrow_forward
