Do what you ean, this is meant to PARTI - Anemias I help you study! Comprehensive Anemia Chart Worth 6 points 49 Ask students to complete the chart, noting key facts for each anemia in the sequence studied. OBJECTIVES After studying this section the learner will be able to: Summarize key characteristics for each anemia. We did not discuss BM Provide a study guide for the anemias. in ALL of the anemias Complete the anemia chart as you study each anemia. Try to visualize a microscopic field that represents cach of the anemias. List at least three distinguishing characteristic of each anemia. This chart can be used to organize the theory to study the anemia.

Answer 1

Name	Cause	Effect	Morphology of PB and BM	Lab Tests for Differential Diagnosis	Clinical Mamifestations	Treatment

Sideroblastic Anemia	Bone marrow produces ringed sideroblasts	Genetic disorder or myelodisplastic syndrome	erythrocytes with basophilic stippling	1.Serum Iron: high 2.increased ferritin levels 3.decreased total iron-binding capacity 4.high transferrin saturation 5.Hematocrit of about 20-30% 6.The mean corpuscular volume or MCV is usually normal or low for congenital causes of sideroblastic anemia but normal or high for acquired forms. 7.With lead poisoning, see coarse basophilic stippling of red blood cells on peripheral blood smear	1.skin paleness 2.fatigue 3.dizziness 4.enlarged spleen and liver	1.Bone marrow transplantation 2. transfusion
Vitamin B12 Deficiency	1. Lack of intrinsic factor 2.Inability to absorb vitamin B-12	1.Chronic gastritis 2.gastrectomy 3.autoimmune condition		1.blood test 2.bone marrow biopsy	1.Weak muscles 2.Numb or tingling feeling in hands and feet 3.Trouble walking 4.Nausea 5.Decreased appetite 6.Weight loss 7.Irritability 8.Lack of energy or tiring easily (fatigue) 9.Diarrhea 10.Smooth and tender tongue 11.Fast heart rate	Treatment may include vitamin B-12 shots (injections) or folic acid pills
Folic acid deficiency	1.Malnutrition 2.Eating over cooking foods 3. Heavy bleeding	1.fatigue 2.dizziness 3.feeling cold 4.irritability 5.headache 6.difficulty in breathing		1.Complete blood count (CBC)test 2.Pregnancy test	1.fatigue 2.mouth sores 3.gray hair 4.swollen tongue 5.poor growth	1.Folic acid tablets 2.Eat foods that are high in folic acid
Aplastic Anemia	1.Radiation and chemotherapy treatments 2.Exposure to toxic chemicals 3.Use of certain drugs 4.Autoimmune disorders 5.A viral infection 6.Pregnancy 7.Unknown factors	Exposure to toxic chemicals		1.Blood tests 2.Bone marrow biopsy	1.Fatigue 2.Shortness of breath 3.Rapid or irregular heart rate 4.Pale skin 5.Frequent or prolonged infections 6.Unexplained or easy bruising 7.Nosebleeds and bleeding gums 8.Prolonged bleeding from cuts 9.Skin rash 10.Dizziness 11.Headache 12.Fever	1.Medications 2.Blood transfusions 3.Stem cell transplant
Hereditary Spherocytosis	Changes (mutations) in any of several genes	1.Feeling dizzy 2.headaches		Iron chelating therapy	1.Increased red cell osmotic fragility 2.Gallstones 3.Enlarged liver 4.High blood bilirubin levels	1.Folate therapy 2.Red blood cell transfusions 3. Iron chelating therapy
Hereditary Eliptocytosis	Red blood cells are abnormally shaped	Enlarged spleen		Genetic testing	1.Anemia 2.Shortness of breath 3.Yellowing of the skin and eyes 4.Enlarged spleen 5.Very low blood levels after an infection	1.Transfusion 2.Splenectomy
Hereditary Pyropoikilocytosis	Mutations of the alphaspectrin gene			Osmotic fragility		Splenectomy
Hereditary xerocytosis	Red cell membrane abnormality with increased permeability to cations and a greater efflux of potassium than of sodium
Sickle Cell Anemia	Mutation in the gene	Stroke Acute chest syndrome Pulmonary hypertension Organ damage			1.Anemia 2.Episodes of pain 3.Swelling of hands and feet 4.Frequent infections 5.Delayed growth or puberty 6.Vision problems	There's no cure for most people with sickle cell anemia
