Anemia A condition in which the blood is deficient in red blood cells,
in hemoglobin, or in total volume.
Erythropoiesis formation of red blood cells
In kidney in response to hypoxia
macrocytic normochromic anemia Large RBC's, normal hemoglobin
Folic acid or Vitamin B12 deficiency
microcytic hypochromic anemia small, abnormally shaped erythrocytes that are not able to
carry normal hemoglobin
Thalassemia- mediterranean
normocytic normochromic anemia Characterized by red cells that are relatively normal in size
and normal hemoglobin
Aplastic, hemorrhagic, hemolytic, sickle cell
iron deficiency anemia anemia resulting when there is not enough iron to build
hemoglobin for red blood cells
Affects children, poverty, child bearing age
Erythrocytes red blood cells
Most abundant cell in the body
Responsible for tissue oxygenation
Mitotic division- 100-120 days
sickle cell anemia A genetic disorder in which erythroctyes take on an abnormal
curved or "sickle" shape (Hb-s)
Thalassemia Inherited defect in the ability to produce hemoglobin, usually
seen in persons of Mediterranean background.
pernicious anemia Lack of mature erythrocytes caused by inability to absorb
vitamin B12 into the bloodstream
hemolytic anemia Characterized by an inadequate number of circulating red
blood cells due to the premature destruction of red blood
cells by the spleen
Pancytopenia- reduction in all 3 types of blood cells (RBC,
WBC, Plt)
Erythropoietin (EPO) Hormone secreted by the kidney to stimulate the production
of red blood cells by bone marrow
In response to hypoxia
In the fetus the liver produces this
Hemoglobin Iron-containing protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen
for delivery to cells
4 molecules of O2
Made of polypeptide, heme, iron
