Q

because of the intrinsic compensatory mechanisms the gradual onset of anemia—particularly in young patients

A

—may not be associated with signs or symptoms until the anemia is severe (hemoglobin <70–80 g/L [7–8 g/dL])

This compensatory mechanism can only maintain normal tissue O2 delivery in the face of a 20–30 g/L (2–3 g/dL) deficit in hemoglobin concentration

31
Q

The normal serum iron ranges from ……………, whereas the normal TIBC is ……………; the normal transferrin saturation ranges from…………

A

54–64 μmol/L (300–360 μg/dL);

25 to 50%

32
Q

Serum ferritin

A

Adult males have serum ferritin levels that average ∼100 μg/L, corresponding to iron stores of ∼1 g

Adult females have lower serum ferritin levels averaging 30μg/L, reflecting lower iron stores (∼300 mg)

A serum ferritin level of 10–15 μg/L indicates depletion of body iron stores

As a rule, a serum ferritin >200 μg/L means there is at least some iron in tissue stores
