4 types of anemia - (ANSWERS)Iron deficiency
lead poisoning
,sickle cell
B-thalassemia
Define iron deficiency anemia - (ANSWERS)reduction in the iron stores of the body causing an
inadequate production of hemoglobin
What is iron needed for? - (ANSWERS)to make hgb
signs and symptoms of iron deficiency anemia - (ANSWERS)pallor
tachycardia
tachypnea
lethargy
fatigue
irritability
Why are neonates at risk for iron deficiency anemia? - (ANSWERS)-lack the maternal iron
stores
-Full term infants have maternal iron stores until approximately 6 months of age
-Havent had the time in utero to store up the needed iron supply (preterm)
How can you treat a neonate with iron deficiency anemia? - (ANSWERS)Iron fortified formula
What are risk factors for iron deficiency anemia in infants and children? -
(ANSWERS)1.inadequate iron intake
2.Malabsorption of iron in GI tract
3.Chronic blood loss
Food with good sources of iron - (ANSWERS)red meat, egg yolk, leafy greens, dried fruits,
fortified cereals/formulas, beef, chicken, fish, beans, nuts, seeds, peanut butter, eggs, prunes,
whole grain bread
,How is iron deficiency anemia diagnosed? - (ANSWERS)Serum lab evaluation:
-Red blood cell count = microcytic (small) and hypo chronic (pale in color)
-low hemoglobin
-low hematocrit
-low reticulocyte count
-low serum iron concentration
-high total iron binding capacity
What is the goal of treatment for iron deficiency anemia - (ANSWERS)treat medical problem
causing malabsorption or blood loss/ identify cause
What is the treatment method for iron deficiency anemia? - (ANSWERS)Increase iron take
~ Dietary sources
~Medication supplement (ferrosol or ferrous sulfate)
What should nurses and parents know about administering iron to children? - (ANSWERS)-
Administer to back of mouth because it stains teeth, can cause constipation, and black/green
stool
-Give with orange juice or citric acid to help with absorption
-Do not give with milk or antacids

, -soil
Dietary factors of lead poisoning - (ANSWERS)-iron deficiency
-calcium deficiency
Patient-child interactions - (ANSWERS)-Job or hobby exposure
-home remedies or cultural practices
How does lead poisoning cause anemia - (ANSWERS)lead can replace iron on Hgb causing O2
to not be delivered causing anemia
Clinical manifestation of lead poisoning - (ANSWERS)-Asymptomatic
-Signs of anemia
-Growth and developmental lags
-Behavioral changes
-Neurologic changes
-Gastrointestinal changes
can someone be asymptomatic if they have lead poisoning - (ANSWERS)yes
signs of anemia (lead poisoning) - (ANSWERS)pallor, fatigue, weakness, shortness of breath,
headache, tachycardia - because lead replaces iron in Hgb causing anemia
Growth and developmental lags in lead poisoning - (ANSWERS)learning difficulties
Neurologic signs and symptoms of lead poisoning - (ANSWERS)-Headache, irritability,
difficulty concentrating, loss of motor skills, paralysis, tremors
High levels: encephalopathy, seizures, and brain damage
