A female patient struck her face on the steering wheel in a head-on motor vehicle collision and has deformity and crepitus to the bridge of her nose. Further assessment reveals bleeding deep within the nasal passages. The patient has been fully immobilized to a long board. To BEST address the hemorrhage in the nasopharynx, the AEMT would:

A) carefully pack the nasal passages with rolls of sterile gauze. B) apply ice packs to the bridge of the nose to control hemorrhage. C) suction blood from the airway as needed. D) transport fully immobilized with her feet elevated.

The bone marrow fibrosis observed in primary myelofibrosis is due to:

a. Malignant proliferation of fibroblasts b. Increased erythropoietin, which stimulates fibroblast proliferation c. Increased release of fibroblastic growth factors such as platelet-derived growth factor d. Decreased apoptosis of normal fibroblasts
