Describe what conditions erythrocytes of a person with sickle cell anemia may
become sickled

> Mutation causes change in structure of hemoglobin molecule
> Deoxygenation and dehydration cause the red cells to solidify and
stretch into an elongated sickle shape
Anisocytosis
Give this one a try later!
erythrocytes are able to assume various shapes.

When should the nurse start closely monitoring the patient with sickle cell anemia? If:
A) Plasma osmolality is decreased
B) Oxygen tension is low
C) Fever develops
D) pH is increased
