Chapter 31: MNT in Nutritional Anemia

Question 1

means too little blood

refers to any condition characterized by reduction in the size of number of the red blood cells (RBCs), the quantity of hemoglobin, or both resulting in decreased capacity of the blood to carry oxygen

Answer 1

anemia

Question 9

pertains to large, immature, and nucleated RBCs, which is clinically manifested by glossitis

Answer 9

megaloblastic anemia

Question 10

nut. anemia - dietary mgmt

large immature, nucleated RBCs with same clinical symptoms of megaloblastic anemia including neuropathy

small, pale RBCs but with normal hemoglobin levels

Answer 11

sideroblastic anemia

Question 12

pertains to anemia induced by easy damage of RBCs

Answer 12

hemolytic anemia

Question 13

refers to anemia induced by poor blood clotting or hemorrhage

Answer 13

hemorrhagic anemia

Question 14

occurs when iron can not be released even in the presence of normal iron stores because of lack of ceruloplasmin to mobilize iron from its storage site

Answer 14

copper-deficiency anemia

Question 15

malnutrition occurs because protein is essential for the proper production of hemoglobin and red blood cells

Answer 15

anemia of protein-energy
