1. Whole blood consists of:
Mostly water 92%
2. Blood cells responsible for gas exchange:
RBC
3. Professional negligence:
Malpractice
4. Most important thing to keep in mind during our daily routine as
phle- botomist:
Confidentiality
5. Which department performs chemical screening tests on urine
specimen: -
Urinalysis
6. Which department monitors warfarin(blood thinner/anticoagulant)
, therapy-
: Coagulation
7. Blood cell responsible for immunity and defense:
WBC
8. Liquid portion of the blood specimen without an anticoagulant is

Serum
9. Sanitation:

Small, red, smooth, hemorrhagic spots appearing on a patient's skin,
which indicates that minute amounts of blood have leaked in the skin
epithelium. Caused by applying the tourniquet too tightly.
15.Hemoconcentration:
A decrease in the plasma volume with an increased con- centration of
cells and molecules may be caused by prolonged tourniquet applica-
tion, or massaging, squeezing, or probing a site.
16.Tourniquet applied for more than 3 min what will become elevated:
