BIOS 255 Week 1 Assignment; Case Study - Coagulation

1. Discuss which clotting factors the PT and PTT test evaluate and whether each test measures the intrinsic or the extrinsic pathways. 2. Describe the common coagulation pathway. 3. Based on Jessie’s test, which factor deficiency do you believe he has and why? 4. Jessie’s clotting factor disease is seen more often in males. Please explain why. 5. If both the PT and the PTT tests were abnormally long, which part of the coagulation pathway would be affected?

Week 7 Case Study: Carbon Monoxide Poisoning Chamberlain University BIOS255 1. Carbon monoxide binds to hemoglobin more than oxygen due to its greater affinity for hemog lobin. When exposed to Carbon monoxide oxygen cant bind to hemoglobin resulting in lack of oxygen throughout the body. 2. The pulse oximeter is a noninvasive device typically used to measure the saturation of oxygen in a patient’s blood. This is different from a CO- Oximeter which is used to measure levels of carboxyhemoglobin...
