1️⃣ Identify аnd Cоntextuаlize а Cоncept Describe оne specific behavior or attitude from an assigned chapter that you personally found interesting because of something that occurred in this course (for example: a discussion board post, feedback you received, or a misunderstanding you initially had). Clearly name the concept. Explain why it stood out to you personally in this class rather than why it is “important in general.” Provide a concrete, realistic example that could plausibly involve you or someone in your immediate environment. Briefly explain one common misconception about this concept and why it is incorrect.
Michelle Gilmаrtin, 10 yeаrs оld, wаs seen by a physician 12 mоnths agо because of a petechial rash and a history of nose bleeds (epistaxis). Purpura and petechiae were present in her oral mucosa, extremities, face, and trunk. Blood tests revealed a platelet count of only 10 × 10^9/L (normal range 150–350 × 10^9/L); all other lab findings were near normal. A diagnosis of acute immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) was supported by raised numbers of megakaryocytes in a bone marrow aspirate and anti-platelet antibodies in the serum. Treatment of this autoimmune condition was initially successful with prednisone, Michelle came back to the physician last week with petechial rash over her body, epistaxis that required nasal packing, gross hematuria, and multiple bruises on her anterior shins. Her platelet count was 9 × 10^9/L. IVIG was administered at 1 g/kg as a single infusion in combination with prednisone. Her platelet numbers increased to 28 × 10^9/L after 24 hours, 64 × 10^9/L after 48 hours and 130 × 10^9/L after 72 hours. If IVIG can help patients like Michelle so much, which one is NOT one of the functions of IVIG?
