Question 1

What is anaemia

Answer 1

Decrease in number of red blood cells as measured by the red blood cell count, hematocrit value and red cell hemoglobin

In men
Hemoglobin - <14g/DL……… 12d/l
Hematocrit - 42% ……. 37%

RBC
4.5mil\mcl ….. 4mil /mcl

Question 2

What is anaemia

Answer 2

Decrease in number of red blood cells as measured by the red blood cell count, hematocrit value and red cell hemoglobin

In men
Hemoglobin - <14g/DL……… 12d/l
Hematocrit - 42% ……. 37%

RBC
4.5mil\mcl ….. 4mil /mcl

Question 3

3 things that cause anaemia

Answer 3

Excessive hemolysis
Deficient erythropoiesis
Blood loss

Question 4

3 ways to classify anaemia

Answer 4

Pathogenesis
Red cell morphology
Clinical presentation

Question 5

Based on pathogenic 2

Answer 5

1. Hypo regenerative : decreased bone marrow product BCS of
   Impaired funct
   Bone marrow infiltration
   Lack of nutrients

Regenerative Responds appropriately to a low erythrocyte mass and increase production

Question 6

Morphology?

Answer 6

Mean corpuscular volume

Microcytic smaller plenty
Normocytic normal fewer
Macrocytic bigger fewer

Question 7

Clinical presentation

Answer 7

Acute or chronic

Question 8

What is used to Pathogenic classify

Answer 8

Reticulocyte count
