KNOWLEDGE DRILL 10-3: TRUE/FALSE ACTIVITY The following statements are are all false, Circle the one or two words that make the statement false and write the correct word(s) that would make the statement true in the space provided. 1. Microhematocrit tubes are often referred to as "bullets" because of their size and shape. 2. Warming a capillary puncture site can increase the blood flow up to 10 times. 3. Capillary mature is sometimes recommended when available veins are fragile or must be saved for the procedures such as a glucose tolerance test. 4. Except for POCT methods, blood specimens for glucose tests cannot be collected by capillary puncture 5. Microtubes for chemistry specimens are collected first in the order of draw for capillary puncture. 6. The CLSI-recommended site for capillary puncture on adults and children older than 1 year is the palmar surface of the distal or end segment of the middle or ring finger of the dominant hand. 7. The safest area for heel puncture is the medial or lateral palmar surface of the heel 8. Neonatal bilirubin specimens must be kept cool during transportation and handling 9. Phenylketonuria is a temporarily acquired disorder. 10. Blood spot circles for newborn screening tests are filled by applying a large drop of free-flowing blood to each side of the filter paper. 11. The recommended antiseptic for capillary specimen collection is povidone-iodine. 12. "Calcaneus" is the medical term for finger bone. 13. The capillary bed in the skin of a full-term newborn is richest in capillary loops below 1 mm deep. 14. Do not squeeze the site while collecting a capillary specimen as hemoconcentration can result. 15. Underfilling a microtube can result in microclots in the specimen. 208 Unit III Blood Collection Procedures SKILLS DRILL 10-4: HEELSTICK PROCEDURE RATIONALE (Textbook Procedure 10-2) Match the rationale summary from the following list with the heelstick procedure steps listed by placing the appropriate letter next to the step under Rationale Summary. A. Absorbs excess blood and helps stop bleeding B. An acceptable one is on the medial or lateral plantar surface of the heel C. Doing this in advance helps ensure everything is ready and within reach D. Encourages the blood flow without compromising specimen integrity E. Exposure to latex can trigger a life-threatening reaction in some individuals F Follow facility protocol before doing this G. Helps ensure correct specimen identification H. Helps prevent sudden unexpected movement by the patient I. Makes collection easier and reduces a tendency to squeeze the site J. Must be reviewed for completeness K. Necessary for proper additive function L. Necessary to protect specimen integrity M. Necessary to verify bleeding has stopped N. Placing it flat against the skin ensures good contact for the puncture O. Plays a major role in infection control P. Prevents contamination of the specimen with excess tissue fluid Q. Removes or inhibits skin flora that could cause infection R. The infant should be lying face up with the foot lower than the torso S. This is courteous and professional T. Vital to patient safety and meaningful test results Rationale Suzy Heelstick Procedure Step 1. Receive, review, and accession test request. 2. Approach. greet, and identify the patient. 3. Explain the procedure, and obtain consent 4. Verify collection requirements, and identify sensitivities and potential problems. 5. Sanitize hands, and put on gloves. be patient. ture site. Le site. Clean and air dry the site. 10. Prepare equipment. 11. Grasp the heel firmly, position the lancet, puncture the site, and discard the lancet. 12. Lower the heel and apply gentle pressure until a blood drop forms 13. Wipe away the first blood drop.

6. On the basis of the reactions observed in the six test tubes, explain why the position of hydrogen cannot be fixed exactly with respect to all of the other elements listed in the activity series in Question 5. 7. What additional test(s) would be needed to establish the exact position of hydrogen in the activity series of the elements listed in Question 5? 8. On the basis of the evidence developed in this experiment: (a) Would silver react with dilute sulfuric acid? Why or why not? (b) Would magnesium react with dilute sulfuric acid? Why or why not?

17. SSE can never be a. larger than SST c. equal to 1 b. smaller than SST d. equal to zero 18. A regression analysis between sales (in S1000) and price (in dollars) resulted in the following equation Y 50,000 -X The above equation implies that an a. increase of $1 in price is associated with a decrease of $8 in sales b. increase of $8 in price is associated with an increase of $8,000 in sales c. increase of $1 in price is associated with a decrease of $42,000 in sales d. increase of $1 in price is associated with a decrease of $8000 in sales Exhibit 12-6 Dependent Variable 20 25 32 43 Independent Variable 12 19. Refer to Exhibit 12-6. The slope of the regression equation is a. 120.348 b. 12.1965 c.-2.5435 d. 2.5435 Refer to Exhibit 12-6. The y intercept is a. 120.348 b. 12.1965 c. -2.5435 20. d. 2.5435

Plus x: A first function Assign y with 5 plus x. Ex: If x is 2, then y is 7. If x is 19, then y is 24. When done writing and testing your function, press "Submit for Assessment", which will automatically apply various test calls to your function Assessment Check if IncreaseValue(2) returns 7 Check if IncreaseValue (19) return 24
