Q

Oral Med for SSD

A

hydroxyurea: anticancer drug; 2 years and older

improve anemia symptoms

ease dactylitis (finger swelling) which cause painful swelling

Q

leukemia: surgery

A

does not treat leukemia

may have splenectomy as spleen may become clogged

port central venous access device often placed surgically to accommodate chemo tx and need for possible atb therapy/blood tranfusion

21
Q

chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML)

A

starts in blood forming cells of the bone marrow and invades the blood

mainly older adults

22
Q

definite test for leukemia and MDS

A

bone marrow aspiration and biopsy

chromosone analysis
-help diagnose type of leukemia
-predict prognosis
-determine therapy effectiveness

23
Q

factors that lead to leukemia

A

type of WBC affected

age

gender

race

geographic locale

24
Q

leukemia patients should avoid

A

smoking/quit

maintain healthy body weight

avoid contact with benzene or formaldehyde

avoid exposure to pesticide

25
genetic factors for AML
down syndrome fanconi anemia kleinfelter syndrome
26
chronic myeloid leukemia (CML)
start in blood forming cells of bone marrow and invades blood 15% of leukemia in adult are CML
27
chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL)
starts in WBC in bone marrow (lymphocytes) affects older adults and accounts for about 1/3 of all leukemia average age of diagnosis 72 years
28
acute myeloid leukemia (AML)
acute non lymphocytic leukemia most common in older people age 72 at diagnosis
29
acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL)
start in bone marrow most common in children pallor, lathargy, SOB, bruising decrease platelet swollen lymph nodes infection often philadelphia chromosome
30
leukemia
cancer of WBC start in blood cell type (thrombocytes, erythrocytes...) acute (fast growing) chronic (slow growing) myeloid-bone marrow lymphoid-lymphatic system (WBC, thymus, bone marrow, lymphatic pathways/drainage system)
31
5Ps
partners (sexually active) practice (sexual contact) protection (condom, immunization) past history (diagnosis, STI, HIV) prevention (birth control
32
TasP
the practice of taking HIV meds to prevent sexual transmission to others who are HIV negative maintain undetectable viral load and spread given to HIV positive patient
33
nPEP
unprotected sexual exposure exposed to someones body fluid through mucous membrane contact shared needle with someone HIV stats unknown taken within 2-72 hours
34
PEP meds
tenofovir disoproxil fumorate emtricitabnine raltegravir or dolutegravir
35
PEP
treatment for healthcare providers who experience occupational exposure such as a needle stick following injection washed exposed areas x 1 min (5 min) start within 72 hours or asap 2 hours continues for 28 days pretest and postest reuqired
36
PrEP meds
cabotegravir - orally or injection tenoforvir disoproxil fumarate/emtricitabine - for all people tenoforvir alafenomide/emtricitabine - approved for sexually active mena nd transgender women combo drugs not used in those with Hep B-acute exacerbation when stopped HepB drug for PrEP
37
PrEP
given to people who are HIV negative, yet at risk for HIV infection taken before sexual activity or drug injection to avoid infection when use as prescribed, PrEP reduce risk by 99%
38
antibody production
gap in antibody production after exposure to HIV infected blood can test negative for antibody within this period--up to 3 months may take up to a year to seroconvert
39
HIV and blood donation
cannot donate if tested positive for HIV at any time inject anything not prescribed mates who had sexual contact with other males taken money, durgs, other payment for sex sexual contact with anyone who engages with any of the above activity
40
prevention of pereteral transmission
syringe service program (SSP) give infor about -access to PrEP -recognize and responnd to drug overdose -obtain naloxone in overdose
41
HIV: practices
latex gloves or polyurethane condom water based lube latex barrier: dental dam latex gloves -change gloves when changing sites
42
HIV: longterm nonprogressor
small population who do not progress, despite hiV infection maintain long-term CD4-T-cell count WNL and stay healthy despite not taking meds
43
HIV: Opportunistic infection
candidiasis cryptococcosis cytomegalovirus mycobacterium avium complex pneumonocytic jirovecci pneumonia toxoplasmosis TB karposi sarcoma nonhodgkin lymphoma invasive cervical cancer
44
HIV stage 3: AIDS
final and most serious stage profound decrease immunity with poor protection against infection increase risk for cancer development diganosis required CD4 + T-cell cont <200 and OI (800-1000)
45
HIV Stage 2: chronic infection
when most care sought out seroconversion taken place meds help to suppress viral load, slow progression, and preserve immune function
46
HIV RNA quantification laboratory test
test viral load more accurate than any in determining course of disorder very effective test for CD4 + t-cell count diagnosis stage 3 later in course of disease provide basis for prognosis, disease progression, response to antiviral treatment
47
factors that affect HIV progression rate
health status single/multi exposure stress nutrition access to care adherence to drug therapy
48
HIV Stage 1: acute stage
symtpoms occur within 4 weeks SX: fever, chill, sore throat, rash, night sweat, headache high viral load in genitalia and transmission possible symptoms multiply rapidly symptoms may go away and patient feels better
