PPT-Approach to Anemia Objectives

Be able to classify the different types of anemia Understand the signs and symptoms associated with anemia Being able to interpret lab abnormalities to diagnose different causes of anemia Introduction to Anemia. Mike Clark, M.D.. Anemia. is a decrease in the normal number of red blood cells (RBCs) or less than the normal quantity of hemoglobin in the blood. However, it can include decreased oxygen-binding ability of each hemoglobin molecule due to deformity or lack in numerical development as in some other types of hemoglobin deficiency.. Greg .

To discuss Iron deficiency (ID) and Iron Deficiency Anemia (IDA) - causes, evaluation, signs, symptoms, treatment and prevention at different ages. Laboratory Procedures. Anemia. Defined:. A condition of reduced oxygen carrying capacity of erythrocytes. Erythrocyte disorders. May be associated with. : . Decreased production of . RBC’s. Increased destruction of . Hemolysis. is defined as the premature destruction of red blood cells (RBCs).. Anemia results when the rate of destruction exceeds the capacity of the marrow to produce RBCs. Normal RBC survival time is 110. Assistant Professor of Medicine & Oncology, Division of Hematology. Disclosures. None. Objectives.

In practice, anemia most commonly is defined by reductions in one or both of the following:. Hematocrit (HCT) – The HCT is the fractional volume of a whole blood sample occupied by RBCs, expressed as a percentage. As an example, the normal HCT in a child age 6 to 12 years is approximately 40 percent.. a sign . of an underlying . disorder. There are several kinds of anemia. .
