Diseases of the blood (hematology)

Syndrome of systemic inflammatory reaction and sepsis

Inflammation is a typical defensive reaction to local damage. Evolution of views on the nature of inflammation largely reflects the development of fundamental general biological concepts of the body's response to the effects of damaging factors.

Leukopenia

Leukopenia or neutropenia is a syndrome in which the absolute number of circulating neutrophils in the blood is below 1.5x109 / L The extreme manifestation of neutropenia is agranulocytosis, a condition in which the number of granulocytes in the blood is below 0.5x109 / l.

The main diseases of the blood in children

In children, especially the early age, the most common is a blood disorder, like anemia. Anemia in children is clinically manifested by varying degrees of pallor of the skin and visible mucous membranes.

Anemia in children

Symptoms in anemia in children are classified according to the type and severity of the disease. A number of symptoms are common to all types of anemia. At the same time, some of its types can cause various accompanying symptoms.

Thrombosis in children

If suspicion of thrombosis involves all the diagnostic tools to determine the location of the thrombus or the elimination of this pathology. Various variants of ultrasound examination, contrast angiography are used.

Thrombocytopenia in children

Thrombocytopenia in children is a group of diseases of the neonatal period, complicated by hemorrhagic syndrome, resulting from a decrease in the number of platelets (less than 150 x 109 / l) due to their increased destruction or insufficient production.

Sepsis treatment protocol

The treatment of sepsis was relevant during the entire period of study of this pathological condition. The number of methods used to treat it is enormous. In part, this can be explained by the heterogeneous nature of the septic process.

Coagulopathy

Coagulopathy includes a symptom complex that develops with functional or morphological changes in the system of regulation of the aggregate state of the blood (the coagulation system is its functional part).

DIC-syndrome in adults

DIC-syndrome (a syndrome of disseminated intravascular coagulation) - consumption coagulopathy, developing with the participation of the antigen-antibody reaction and accompanied by thrombus formation in capillaries and small vessels with depletion and impaired formation of all factors.

Anemic syndrome

Anemic syndrome is a pathological condition caused by a decrease in red blood cells and hemoglobin in a circulating blood unit. True anemic syndrome must be distinguished from hemodilution, which is caused by massive transfusion of blood substitutes, accompanied by either an absolute decrease in the number of circulating red blood cells, or a decrease in their hemoglobin content.
