Learning Outcomes On completion of this exercise, the participant should be able to • discuss the morphologic features of normal peripheral blood leukocytes; • describe characteristic morphologic findings in Pelger-Huët cells; and • differentiate Pelger-Huët cells from other neutrophils in a peripheral blood smear. Case History: A 30 year old female had a routine CBC performed as part of a physical examination. Her CBC results are as follows: WBC=5.9 x 109/L, RBC=4.53 x 1012/L, Hgb=13.6 g/dL, Hct=40%, MCV=88.3 fL, MCH=29.7 pg, MCHC=32.9 g/dL, Platelet=184 x 109/L. Introduction The images presented in this testing event represent normal white blood cells as well as several types of neutrophils that may be seen in the peripheral blood when a patient has the Pelger-Huët anomaly. -
Correlation of Blood Culture and Band Cell Ratio in Neonatal Septicaemia

C.,1 Aggarwal B.2 1Department of Microbiology, SGRRIM&HS and SMIH, Dehradun, Uttarakhand, India. 2Department of Paediatrics, SGRRIM&HS and SMIH, Dehradun, Uttarakhand, India. Abstract: Background: Neonatal sepsis is a clinical syndrome characterized by signs and symptoms of infection with or without accompanying bacteraemia in the first month of life. Incidence differs among hospitals depending on variety of factors. Blood culture is considered gold standard for the diagnosis, but does not give a rapid result. Hence, there is a need to look for a surrogate marker for diagnosing neonatal septicaemia. Material & Methods: 335 neonates were studied for clinically suspected septicaemia over a period of one year. Blood was cultured and organism identified biochemically. Parameters of subjects like EOS, LOS and Band cell counts were recorded. Results analysed statistically. Results: Male preponderance was observed. Majority of the cases had a normal vaginal delivery. 47.46% cases had early onset septicaemia. Meconium stained liquor was the predominant risk factor .Culture positivity was found to be 32.24% and 87.96% of them also had band cells percentage ranging from 0 to >25. Conclusion: Band cell count can be used as a surrogate marker for neonatal septicaemia. An upsurge of Candida species as a causative agent in Neonatal septicaemia has been observed. -

BLOOD CELL IDENTIFICATION Educational Commentary Is
EDUCATIONAL COMMENTARY – BLOOD CELL IDENTIFICATION Educational commentary is provided through our affiliation with the American Society for Clinical Pathology (ASCP). To obtain FREE CME/CMLE credits click on Continuing Education on the left side of the screen. Learning Outcomes After completion of this exercise, the participant will be able to: • identify morphologic features of normal peripheral blood leukocytes and platelets. • describe characteristic morphologic findings associated with reactive lymphocytes. • compare morphologic features of normal lymphocytes, reactive lymphocytes, and monocytes. Photograph BCI-01 shows a reactive lymphocyte. The term “variant” is also used to describe these cells that display morphologic characteristics different from what is considered normal lymphocyte appearance. Reactive lymphocytes demonstrate a wide variety of morphologic features. They are most often associated with viral illnesses, so it is expected that some of these cells would be present in the peripheral blood of this patient. This patient had infectious mononucleosis that was confirmed with a positive mononucleosis screening test. An increased number of reactive lymphocytes is a morphologic hallmark of infectious mononucleosis. Some generalizations regarding the morphology of reactive lymphocytes can be made. These cells are often large with abundant cytoplasm. Cytoplasmic vacuoles and/or azurophilic granules may also be present. Reactive lymphocytes have an increased amount of RNA in the cytoplasm, which is reflected by an associated increase in cytoplasmic basophilia. The cytoplasm may stain gray, pale-blue, or a very deep blue and appear patchy. The cytoplasmic margins may be indented by surrounding red blood cells and appear a darker blue than the rest of the cytoplasm. Likewise, the nuclei in reactive lymphocytes are variably shaped and may be round, oval, indented, or lobulated. -

CENTER FOR DRUG EVALUATION AND RESEARCH APPLICATION NUMBER: 761070Orig1s000 NON-CLINICAL REVIEW(S) Tertiary Pharmacology/Toxicology Review Date: November 1, 2017 From: Timothy J. McGovern, PhD, ODE Associate Director for Pharmacology and Toxicology, OND IO BLA: 761070 Agency receipt date: November 16, 2016 Drug: FASENRA (benralizumab) injection, for subcutaneous use Sponsor: AstraZeneca Pharmaceuticals LP Indication: Add-on maintenance treatment of patients with severe asthma aged 12 years and older, and with an eosinophilic phenotype. Reviewing Division: Division of Pulmonary, Allergy, and Rheumatology Products The primary pharmacology/toxicology reviewer and team leader concluded that the nonclinical data for FASENRA (benralizumab) solution for subcutaneous injection support approval for the indication listed above. Benralizumab is a humanized, afucosylated IgG1 kappa monoclonal antibody that targets interleukin-5 receptor alpha. The recommended dose of benralizumab is 30 mg administered once every 4 weeks for the first 3 doses, and then once every 8 weeks thereafter. The Established Pharmacologic Class (EPC) for benralizumab is “interleukin- 5 receptor alpha-directed cytolytic monoclonal antibody”. Pivotal nonclinical studies were conducted in Cynomolgus monkeys. In toxicology studies up to 39 weeks duration, NOAELs of 10 mg/kg IV and 30 mg/kg SC were identified. The primary finding at a dose of 25 mg/kg IV was a post-dose reaction in one high-dose female that included bruising in the areas of the eyes, face, chest and lower abdomen, a decrease in platelet counts, and abnormal erythrocytes after the fourth dose. The NOAEL doses were associated with systemic exposures (AUC) that provided 153- to 271-fold exposure margins compared to the recommended clinical dose. -
Lesson-1 Composition of Blood and Normal Erythropoiesis
Composition of Blood and Normal Erythropoiesis MODULE Hematology and Blood Bank Technique 1 COMPOSITION OF BLOOD AND Notes NORMAL ERYTHROPOIESIS 1.1 INTRODUCTION Blood consists of a fluid component- plasma, and a cellular component comprising of red cells, leucocytes and platelets, each of them with distinct morphology and a specific function. Erythrocytes or red cells are biconcave discs. They do not have a nucleus and are filled with hemoglobin which carries oxygen to tissues and carbon dioxide from the tissues to the lungs. Platelets are small cells. They also do not have a nucleus and are essential for clotting of blood. Leucocytes play an important role in fighting against infection. All these cells arise from a single cell called as the Hematopoietic stem cell. The process of formation of these cells is called Hematopoiesis. In this lesson we will learn the different stages in the development of red cells. The process of formation of red cells is called erythropoiesis. OBJECTIVES After reading this lesson, you will be able to: z explain the composition of blood z describe various stages in the formation of red cells z explain the precautions in handling blood and blood products z explain steps for preventing injury from sharp items. 1.2 SITES OF HEMATOPOIESIS It begins in the early prenatal period, within the first two weeks, in the yolk sac in the form of blood islands and is known as primitive hematopoiesis. The red cells formed at this time are nucleated and contain embryonic type of hemoglobin which differs in the type of globin chains from the adult hemoglobin.
