Excessive bleeding. 92456012050Reduced absorption of Vitamin B-12. The treatment of iron deficiency anemia includes: 92456012863924560279563924560544993Blood transfusions. Vitamin-B-12 replacement. Ferritin replacement. 92456012597Iron supplementation. Microcytic Anemias As you should recall, microcytic anemias result from conditions whereby the RBCs are small (MCV<80 dL). These anemias can also be classified according to their color, or amount of hemoglobin per RBC (MCHC). Identify if each item below is Microcytic Thalassemia Hereditary spherocytosis Sideroblastic Iron deficiency Anemia of inflammation and chronic disease Microcytic Hyperchromic Microcytic Normochromic Microcytic Hypochromic Hypochromic, Microcytic Normochromic, or Microcytic Hyperchromic. The basic pathophysiology of iron deficiency anemia is that there are insufficient iron levels or the inability of the cell’s mitochondria to utilize iron effectively. 924560143037924560409737True False Which of the following are iron-rich foods? 924560142403Meat. 92456082078924560347508Lima beans. Spinach. When iron stores are depleted, the cell’s mitochondria are still able to utilize iron effectively due to compensatory mechanisms. 924560142403924560409103True False 924560502147A transferrin deficiency will most likely result in: Pernicious anemia. 92456085253924560350683Hemolytic anemia. Aplastic anemia. 92456013321Iron-deficiency anemia. One of the common precipitating factors of folate deficiency is alcohol abuse. 924560143038924560409738True False Folic acid is essential to the body because it: 924560142403924560409103Plays a major role in the maturing of RBCs. Allows for the production of erythropoietin. Prevents cardiovascular disease. 92456059217Impacts the absorption of vitamin B-12. A non-megaloblastic anemia would be caused by liver disease A deficiency of intrinsic factor will result in pernicious anemia The MCV lab values will be normal in a patient with pernicious anemia Which of the following lab values are normal f
