Cause
Symptoms
Treatment
damage to red bone
marrow, body does not
produce enough RBCs,
thrombocytes, or white
blood cells
lack of iron in the blood to
poor diet or inability to
absorb iron from food.
Component of
hemoglobin.
bone marrow is unable to
increase production to
make up for premature
destruction of RBCs
genetic, abnormal
hemoglobin causes RBC
to sickle
fatigue, high risk of infection,
uncontrolled bleeding
medication, blood
transfusion. stem cell
transplant
Symptoms depend on severity,
can range from extreme fatigue
to unusual cravings.
Dietary changes,
medicines, and if severe,
surgery or blood
transfusions.
enlarged spleen, rapid heart
beat, shortness of berath
blood transfusion or
removal of spleen
tires, short of breath, clots of
RBC causes blood to thicken
transfusions, gene therapy
Deficiency of vitamin B12
DOn’t make enough red
blood cells
blood disorder passed
down through families,
body makes an abnormal
form of hemoglobin
occurs when a mutation in
bone marrow cells causes
a problem with blood cell
production
urinary tract infections,
kidney stones, staph
Numbness, weakness, lack of
coordination, paraplegia
VItamin b-12 can be
injected through a shot or
taken orally
stillbirth, bone deformities in
the face, fatigue, growth failure
regular blood transfusions,
folate supplements, bone
marrow transplant
headache; dizziness; shortness
of breathe; fatigue
chronic treatment that
can’t be cured. blood
removal.
pink, red or cola colored urine
blood in urine
antibiotics, medication
a lack of oxygen in the
blood due to a response to
extreme cold, a
circulatory, or respiratory
problem
high altitudes, not enough
oxygen is being supplied
to tissues in the body,
esp.brain
bluish skin color
Dependent on cause
dizziness, shortness of breath,
confusion possibly cyanosis
Increase Oxygen levles
11. Blood Doping
David
12. leukocytosis
Jeffery
13. leukopenia
Trevor
14. myeloid
leukemia
Jessica
induced erythrocemia.
Results in the withdrawal
of blood
white blood cells increase
caused by infection
when the blood is reintroduced,
RBC and hemoglobin levels
may rise to 20%
burns, infraction, crush injuries,
inflammatory disease
No treatment, banned
from sport
Low white cell count ( less
than 40,00) in blood
possibly due to recent
infection
Starts in blood forming
cells of the bone marrow.
White blood cells build up
in the body over time.
Depends on severity; no signs
or it may cause fever and
infection
Prescribed steroids and
vitamins, cytokine
therapy, chemotherapy
Flu like symptoms:
Fever, shortness of breathe,
easy bruising or bleeding.
Weakness. Weight loss or loss
of apptite.
Bone marrow transplant.
Chemotherapy.
dependent on cause
15. lymphoid leukemia
Amanda
16. lymphopenia
mutation in DNA causes
lymphocytes to be
produced abnormally by
blood cells; these mutated
cells take the place of
healthy cells in bone
marrow and interfere with
blood production
Low number of
lymphocytes
Nina
17. lymphocytosis
Garrett
18. hemophilia
Lizzie
19. thrombus
Nick
20. embolism
Meghan
21. thrombocytopenia
high amounts of
lymphocitis
inherited blot clotting
defect
damage to the lining of a
blood vessel. either an
artery or a vein. causing a
clot
a blockage, called an
embolus, in one or more
of your arteries
abnormal drop in number
of platelets
Valerie
22. thrombocytosis
David
23. Von Willebrand
disease
Ian
25. septicemia
John
most often none; as
stages increase, enlarged
lymph nodes, fatigue,
fever, enlarged spleen,
frequent infections,
weight loss
early stage is not treated
(not beneficial);
chemotherapy, targeted
drug therapy; bone
marrow stem cell
transplant
increased susceptibility
to infection, symptoms
vary based on underlying
infection
cough,sore
throat,fever(depends on
cause)
excessive bleeding, easy
bruising
treat underlying condition
oxygen deprivation. limp
may appear white and
intense pain
sudden, unexplained
shortness of breath, chest
pain, cough that may
bring up sputum
bruise easily, can have
episode of excess
bleeding (hemorrhage)
excess of platelets in the
blood.
rarely any symptoms
inheritted deficiency of
the Von Willebrand factor
prolonged or excessive
bleeding
Bacteria enters the blood
stream and infects many
parts of the body.
Causes are inflammation
of the whole body,
slowly shuts down
organs.
treatment may vary such
as antibiotics some have
no cure but time/isolation
replacement therapy,
desmopressin,
antifibrinolytic
medicines, gene therapy
surgery and
anticoagulants
anticoagulants, surgery
if caused by enlarged
spleen, it can be
removed, if caused by
disfunctional immuse
system steroid perscribed,
or low platelet
production, transfusion
routine check up with
doctor. perscribed
medications or surgery.
replacement therapy
injections
Doctors prescribe
antibiotics and fluids
through IV.
