Slide2Slide3Slide4Disorder of RBC
The disorder of
rbc
occure
in the form of either anemia or
polycythemia
.
ANEMIA :
It is the disease involving deficiency in number of cell or deficiency of
haemoglobin
.
Because of any one deficiencies, there is a decrease in the oxygen carrying capacity of blood.
Symptoms:
Breathlessness
Tiredness
Loss of appetite
Pallor of skin
Dizziness
Slide5Risk factors
A diet lacking in certain vitamins.
Having a diet that is consistently low in iron, vitamin B-12 and
folate
increases your risk of anemia.
Intestinal disorders.
Having an intestinal disorder that affects the absorption of nutrients in your small intestine — such as
Crohn's
disease puts you at risk of anemia.
Menstruation.
In general, women who haven't experienced menopause have a greater risk of iron deficiency anemia than do men and postmenopausal women. That's because menstruation causes the loss of red blood cells.
Pregnancy.
If you're pregnant and aren't taking a multivitamin with folic acid, you're at an increased risk of anemia.
Slide6Chronic conditions.
If you have cancer, kidney failure or another chronic condition, you may be at risk of anemia of chronic disease. These conditions can lead to a shortage of red blood cells.
Slow, chronic blood loss from an ulcer or other source within your body can deplete your body's store of iron, leading to iron deficiency anemia.
Family history.
If your family has a history of an inherited anemia, such as sickle cell anemia, you also may be at increased risk of the condition.
Other factors.
A history of certain infections, blood diseases and autoimmune disorders, alcoholism, exposure to toxic chemicals, and the use of some medications can affect red blood cell production and lead to anemia.
Age.
People over age 65 are at increased risk of anemia.
Slide7Complications
Severe fatigue.
When anemia is severe enough, you may be so tired that you can't complete everyday tasks.
Pregnancy complications.
Pregnant women with
folate
deficiency anemia may be more likely to experience complications, such as premature birth.
Heart problems.
Anemia can lead to a rapid or irregular heartbeat (arrhythmia). When you're anemic your heart must pump more blood to compensate for the lack of oxygen in the blood. This can lead to an enlarged heart or heart failure.
Death.
Some inherited
anemias
, such as sickle cell anemia, can be serious and lead to life-threatening complications. Losing a lot of blood quickly results in acute, severe anemia and can be fatal.
Slide8Prevention
Eat a vitamin-rich diet
Many types of anemia can't be prevented. But iron deficiency anemia and vitamin deficiency
anemias
can be avoided by having a diet that includes a variety of vitamins and nutrients, including:
Iron.
Iron-rich foods include beef and other meats, beans, lentils, iron-fortified cereals, dark green leafy vegetables, and dried fruit.
Folate
.
This nutrient, and its synthetic form folic acid, can be found in fruits and fruit juices, dark green leafy vegetables, green peas, kidney beans, peanuts, and enriched grain products, such as bread, cereal, pasta and rice.
Vitamin B-12.
Foods rich in vitamin B-12 include meat, dairy products, and fortified cereal and soya products.
Vitamin C.
Foods rich in vitamin C include citrus fruits and juices, peppers, broccoli, tomatoes, melons and strawberries. These items help increase iron absorption.
Slide9Prevent malaria
Anemia can be a complication of malaria. In areas where malaria is common, prevention involves reducing exposure to mosquitoes, for example, by using bed nets treated with insecticide.
Slide10Types
Iron deficiency anemia
Megaloblastic
anemia
Hemolytic anemia
Aplastic
anemia
Slide11Causes of iron deficiency anemia
Inadequate iron intake
Pregnancy or blood loss due to menstruation
Internal bleeding
Inability to absorb iron:
Certain disorders or surgeries that affect the intestines can also interfere with how your body absorbs iron
Slide12Iron deficiency anemia
In this type of anemia there is a deficiency of iron
Due to 1) low dietary intake
2) decreased absorption
Due to lack of iron , sufficient
haemoglobin
is not synthesized. So defects in this type of anemia is , inadequate
haemoglobin
synthesis.
symptoms
general fatigue
weakness
pale skin
shortness of breath
dizziness
tongue swelling
or soreness
cold hands and feet
fast or
irregular heartbeat
brittle nails
headaches
Slide13Megaloblastic anemia
This type of anemia occurs due to the deficiency of either
vit
B12 or folic acid.
vit
B12 or folic acid are necessary for the maturation of red blood cells.
In the deficiency if either of them, the maturation of red blood cells does not occur.
So large sized red blood cells called
megaloblast
are released in circulation.
Slide14Haemolytic anemia
It occurs due to increase destruction of
rbcs
.
This group of
anemias
developes
when red blood cells are destroyed faster than the bone marrow can replace them
It occurs due to the 1) hereditary disorder
2) mechanical injury to
rbc
3) infection like
maleria
Slide15Aplastic anemia
It occurs due to the suppression of bone marrow function. This is life threatening anemia occurs when your body doesn’t produce enough RBCs.
It can be caused by drugs, chemical, irradiation or malignant diseases, auto immune disease.
Slide16polycythemia
In this condition, here is an abnormal increase in the no. of
rbc
. This increases the viscosity of blood. This decreases the rate of flow & increase the risk of intravascular clotting.
Common causes of
polycythemia
include:
Bone marrow cancer
A response to reduced availability of oxygen as at high altitudes
Slide17Disorder of
wbc
Leucocytosis
: It is an increase in the total number of white blood cells beyond 10000 per cubic millimeter . It may of following type:
Neutrophilla
: Increase in the no. of
neutrophills
.
It occurs in many inflammatory condition.
Eosinophilia
: Increase in the no. of
eosinophills
It is an indication for allergic manifestations.
Leukemia
: It is cancerous condition
characherised
by an overproduction of
wbc
.
Leukemia can occur at any age but it is more common in childhood.
Slide18Leucopenia
It is decrease in the number of white blood cells. It is produced by infections & some drugs.
Depending on the type of WBC which is reduced, it may be called as
neutropenia
,
lymphopenia
,
eosinopenia
.
Slide19Disorder of platelets
They occurs in the form of thrombocytopenia. It is the condition where there is a decrease in
platelate
count
due to deficiency of clotting factors
. It results in :
Increase in bleeding time
Defects in the retraction of clot
Slide20Slide21Disorder of clotting
Haemophilia
: This disease is caused due to the absence of factor VIII (
Antihaemophilic
factor ). This disease occurs in men. But it is genetically transmitted through women.
Hereditary bleeding disorders due to deficiency of clotting factors
Thrombosis
: Intravascular
clotting of blood is called thrombosis. Thrombosis may
occus
due to
roughning
or thickening of blood vessels. (
artherosclerosis
)
Thrombosis can obstruct essential blood vessel ( like coronary or cerebral vessels ) this may lead to death.
