ANSWER: Stercobilin Hemolytic Disease of the Newborn ANSWER: -Rh+ antibodies of a sensitized Rh- mother cross the placenta and attack and destroy the RBCs of an Rh+ baby -Rh- mother becomes sensitized when Rh+ blood (from a previous pregnancy of an Rh+ baby or a Rh+ transfusion) causes her body to synthesis Rh+ antibodies. - RhoGam, pre-birth transfusions. Hemophilias ANSWER: a. Hemophilias - hereditary bleeding disorders caused by lack of clotting factors Hemophilia A - most common type (83% of all cases) due to a deficiency of factor VIII Hemophilia B - results from a deficiency of factor IX (A&B are sex-linked hemophilias commonly seen in males)
