What specimen would need to be transported in a heat block?
-
Cryofibrogen
-
BUN
-
PTT
-
Billirubin
Correct Answer
A. CryofibrogenExplanation
A heat block is used to maintain a specific temperature for certain specimens during transportation. Cryofibrinogen is a protein that can precipitate and form clots at low temperatures. Therefore, it needs to be transported in a heat block to prevent clot formation and maintain its integrity. BUN (blood urea nitrogen), PTT (partial thromboplastin time), and bilirubin do not require specific temperature control during transportation, so they would not need to be transported in a heat block.Rate this question:

All of the following are symptoms of Shock except.
-
Decrease in breathing
-
Pale skin
-
Expressionless face
-
Cold and clammy skin
Correct Answer
A. Decrease in breathingExplanation
Shock is a life-threatening condition that occurs when there is inadequate blood flow throughout the body. Symptoms of shock include pale skin, an expressionless face, and cold and clammy skin. These symptoms are caused by a decrease in blood flow and oxygen delivery to the body's tissues. However, a decrease in breathing is not a symptom of shock. In fact, in shock, the body often compensates by increasing the respiratory rate in an attempt to improve oxygenation.Rate this question:

What is the correct site for a Infant heel puncture?
Correct Answer
Interior side of the heelExplanation
The correct site for an infant heel puncture is the interior side of the heel. This location is chosen because it is less likely to cause damage to important structures such as bones and nerves. Additionally, the interior side of the heel has a good blood supply, making it easier to collect a blood sample for testing.Rate this question:
