what happens to growth in TOF?
|
decrease
|
|
what posits do kids take in tof? what do the posits cause?
|
Squatting seen in older children while knee chest postion is seen in infants, which decreases venous return by occluding the femoral vein by hip flexion
|
|
the posits in TOF decrease venous return by occluding the femoral vein by hip flexion and lead to___?
|
Decreased work load of heart and allows for higher O2 levels into aorta

|
African populations and people from Puerto Rico, Turkey, India, the Middle East and the Mediterranean
|
|
describe rbc in sickle cell?
|
rigid and rough, forming an elongated sickle shape and impairing circulation by clumping together ("vaso-occlusive"
|
|
what can sickling?
give examples of when sickling occurs in sickle cell? |
This happens ("sickling") during periods of hypoxia which can be provoked by infection, blood loss, strenuous exercise, high altitude, unpressurized aircraft, cold and vasoconstrictive drugs
|

what kidney problems in sickle cell?
|
Inability to concentrate urine, blood in urine
|
|
what bone changes in sickle cell?
