Cаse Study (wоrth 3 bоnus pоints): A pаtient with known chronic liver diseаse visits his physician for a sore on his hand. Suspecting infection, the physician orders a gram stain and culture of the wound. The results indicate a Staphylococcus aureus infection. This is the third time in 4 months that the patient has developed an infection. The physician asks the nurse to educate the patient on proper hygiene. The nurse reports that the patient practices proper hygiene and that she cannot understand why the patient has had so many infections lately. The physician prescribes antibiotics and asks the patient to report to the laboratory for additional testing in hopes of determining the reason for the frequent infections. 1. Based on this patient’s chronic liver disease and history of frequent infections, the physician is most likely ordering the laboratory testing to monitor for which of the following? a. Decreased white blood cell production b. Decreased complement production c. Decreased antibody production 2. The physician orders complement studies. The physician is likely to focus on the results for which complement proteins? a. C1, C2, and C3 b. C2, C3, and C4 c. C1, C3, and C4 d. C2 and C4 3. Decreased complement concentrations in this patient could result in which of the following? a. Loss of opsonization of foreign invaders, putting the patient at risk for infection b. Decreased production of antibodies, putting the patient at risk for recurrent infections c. Increased clearing of immune complexes, which could cause autoimmune processes within the patient
