What is anemia? - CORRECT ANSWER-Deficiency in number of erythrocytes
(most anemias except aplastic)
Less erythrocytes means a decrease in the amount of oxygen reaching tissues
Hemoglobin, hematocrit, red blood cells (we look at these to see what kind of
anemia they have)
It is not a specific disease
Manifestation of pathologic process- can cause oxygenation issues, perfusion
issues, ect.
Anemia is a manifestation of a pathologic process. Clients can have certain types
of anemias that will be on their list of medical conditions. However the term
"anemia" by itself is not a condition. For instance someone can have iron
deficiency anemia etc. It just means there is a change in the red blood cells
,You look at the red blood cell parameters exclusively
Lab review for anemia - CORRECT ANSWER-Important Labs to Know
Hemoglobin?
13-17 g/dL Male
12-16 g/dL Female
Hematocrit?
35-50% Male
35-47% Female
Simple trick?
Hemoglobin x 3 should roughly equate to hematocrit
Simple trick is that hematocrit should be roughly triple hemoglobin. If you can
remember the normal hemoglobin then you should be good with hematocrit.
Depending upon your area you will work, some doctors will focus on one or the
other. Large majority will focus on hemoglobin, but some older physicians will ask
, for hematocrit..I have no idea why either. You usually don't call a doctor for a
patient with a low blood count then ask why they prefer hematocrit over
hemoglobin etc.
Hydration status can falsely affect your hemoglobin level (dehydrated makes it
look higher, over hydrated makes it seem lower)
Classifications of anemia - CORRECT ANSWER-Hypoproliferative
Defect in the production process of erythrocytes (not enough of them for what
we need)
Iron, B12, Folic Acid, not having enough erthyroproetin
Hemolytic
Destruction
Sickle cell, enphalicemia
Loss
Bleeding (can be obvious or hidden)
