ANEMIA
MANIFESTATIONS:
feelings of weakness, or fatigue, general
malaise,sometimes poor concentration.
spoon nail (in iron deficiency) symptom of anemia
Koilonychia
(when anemia results from
abnormal break down of red blood cells — in
hemolytic anemia)
jaundice
common anemia (low red blood cell
level) caused by insufficient dietary intake
and absorption of iron,
IRON DEFICIENCY ANEMIA
deficiency contribute to anemia
during pregnancy

the mouth’s corners) in IRON DEFECIENCY ANEMIA
Angular cheilitis
IRON DEFECIENCY ANEMIA
MANAGEMENT:
ascorbic acid with a basic iron
✓Using nondairy milk
✓Gluten-free diets
anemia (of macrocytic classification)
that results from inhibition of DNA synthesis
in red blood cell production.
MEGALOBLASTIC ANEMIA
(increased variation in RBC
size)
Anisocytosis
(abnormally shaped RBCs).
poikilocytosis
(larger than normal RBCs)
Macrocytes
(chromosomal
remnant) also present.

Bone marrow depression anemia.
APLASTIC ANEMIA
Aplastic anemia patients have
lower counts of all three blood cell types: red
blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets,
termed
pancytopenia.
group of hereditary disorders associated
with defective hemoglobin-chain synthesis
and characterized by hypochromia, extreme
microcytosis, hemolysis and enemia.

Alpha-thalassemia
Beta-thalassemia (fatal)
Thalassemia major (Coolesy’s anemia)
defective hemoglobin molecules
consequently deformed, rigid,
shaped RBCs.
