Episode 54 - You and What Army? | Approach to Neutropenia
from Bloody Minded · host Bloody Minded Crew
A lone neutrophil stands alone against a horde of gram negative bacteria. He is the last of his kind, the single granulocyte rising from the ashes of a marrow once verdant with haematopoiesis, now overrun with blasts. As the endotoxin rushes towards him, he smiles, for on the horizon he can see the glimmer of tazocin rushing through the blood vessels like Gandalf leading the Rohirrim to Helm’s Deep. While the Bloody Minded Cinematic Universe remains in pre-production, you can sate your appetite with a podcast on neutropenia for now.TIMESTAMPS2:21 - Cutoffs (arbitrary as usual) 3:10 - An Overview of Granulopoiesis 5:24 - When is neutropenia urgent? 6:46 - History 7:32 - Examination 10:45 - Artefactual neutropenia 12:40 - Nutritional causes 13:43 - Infective causes 14:42 - Medications 16:22 - Marrow pathology 19:27 - Autoimmune causes 22:26 - Splenomegaly 22:52 - DANC 25:33 - Investigations 28:26 - Management 32:43 - Take Home MessagesSupport the showCheck out show notes, additional references and (sometimes) extra content at www.bloodyminded.com.au
