(Print) Use this randomly generated list as your call list when playing the game. There is no need to say the BINGO column name. Place some kind of mark (like an X, a checkmark, a dot, tally mark, etc) on each cell as you announce it, to keep track. You can also cut out each item, place them in a bag and pull words from the bag.

- Pregnancy: Pregnant women require more iron to support the developing fetus and increase blood volume.
USED IN SEVERE CASES
Stages of iron deficiency anemia
Faster iron repletion in severe cases.
Chronic Inflammatory Diseases: Conditions like inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), Crohn’s disease, or ulcerative colitis can affect iron absorption.
Stage 1 - Iron stores decrease. Your low iron supply hasn’t affected your red blood cells yet.
Aplastic Anemia
3. Which laboratory finding is most indicative of iron deficiency anemia?
Hematocrit (Hct): Low
Can cause neurological symptoms if untreated
Iron deficiency anemia is a common type of anemia
1ST LINE OF TREATMENT
stage 3 - Hemoglobin drops below the normal range.
DIAGNOSTIC
A. Ferrous sulfate or ferrous gluconate
2. Which of the following is NOT a common symptom of iron deficiency anemia?
DIETARY CHANGES
IRON SUPPLEMENTS
- A poor diet lacking in iron-rich foods, such as red meat, leafy greens, beans, and fortified cereals, can lead to iron deficiency.
Avoid inhibitors: Don’t take iron with dairy, coffee, or tea.
Chronic inflammation or illness (e.g., infections, cancer, autoimmune diseases).
Enhance absorption: Eat with vitamin C (e.g., citrus fruits).
Brittle nails
- Gastrointestinal Bleeding: Conditions like ulcers, gastritis, or hemorrhoids can cause chronic blood loss.
May result from poor intake or inability to absorb B12
CBC:
Anemia of Chronic Disease (ACD)
Common in people with poor diets, alcoholism, or malabsorption issues
Hemoglobin (Hgb): Low
Used when oral iron isn’t tolerated or absorbed. EX: Iron sucrose, ferumoxytol
Especially important during pregnancy
IRON STUDIES:
TREATMENT
Increased iron requirements:
Cold hands and feet
Palpitations
D) Pale skin
Due to lack of folic acid (a B vitamin)
C) Low hemoglobin and hematocrit levels
SOB
Sickle Cell Anemia
B) Decreased total iron-binding capacity (TIBC)
- Adolescence: Increased iron demand
TYPES OF ANEMIA
A rare condition where the bone marrow fails to produce enough red blood cells
Causes mild to severe anemia depending on the type
IV IRON
BLOOD TRANSFUSION
C) High blood pressure
Inadequate Iron Intake:
Surgery or Trauma: Major surgeries or accidents may lead to blood loss.
B) Chronic diseases
Caused by low levels of vitamin B12
- Impaired iron absorption:
Inherited disorder where red blood cells become crescent-shaped and break down easily
- Increased iron loss:
Folate Deficiency Anemia
A) Vitamin B12 deficiency
C) Decrease intake of vitamin C while on iron therapy.
- As seen in Vegetarians and vegans, they may have particular difficulty obtaining sufficient heme iron from plant-based sources, as non-heme iron is less efficiently absorbed by the body.
Ferritin: LOW
Side effects: Constipation, dark stools, nausea.toms of the patient
- Infancy and Childhood: Rapid growth in infants and toddlers increases iron needs.
RISK FACTORS
4. A patient with iron deficiency anemia is prescribed oral iron supplements. Which instruction should the nurse include?
Iron deficiency
Gastric Surgery: Procedures like gastric bypass reduce the stomach’s ability to absorb iron.
D) Take iron supplements immediately before bedtime.
HOW IT WORKS: iron deficiency anemia is due to insufficient iron. Without enough iron, your body can't produce enough of a substance in red blood cells that enables them to carry oxygen (hemoglobin).
Signs and symptoms
D) Increased mean corpuscular volume (MCV)
Celiac Disease: A disorder that affects nutrient absorption in the small intestine.
-
B. Take on an empty stomach with vitamin C to improve absorption
Craving ice or clay
Pallor
Leads to chronic anemia, pain crises, and organ damage
B) Shortness of breath
Reticulocyte Count: Low or normal (indicates reduced RBC production)
TIBC (Total Iron-Binding
Capacity): HIGH
Anemia is a blood disorder that occurs when the body lacks sufficient red blood cells or hemoglobin, an iron-rich protein that carries oxygen from the lungs to tissues throughout the body. While some forms of anemia are inherited, individuals can
Anemia is the most common blood disorder, and it affects more than 3 million Americans.
QUESTIONS
B) Iron supplements may cause stools to become dark or black.
Rarely performed but can be used to confirm iron deficiency if other diagnostics are inconclusive.
RBC Count: Low or normal
Inherited blood disorder that affects hemoglobin production
A) Elevated serum ferritin
Thalassemia
Serum Iron: Low
D) Genetic disorders
Fatigue
Dizziness
Increase iron-rich foods: red meat, beans, spinach, fortified cereals.
Stage 2 - When iron stores are low, your body alters the way it processes red blood cells. Your bone marrow makes red blood cells without enough hemoglobin.
A) Take the iron supplement with milk to enhance absorption.
Can be caused by autoimmune disease, certain medications, or toxins
Vitamin B12 Deficiency Anemia (Pernicious Anemia)
1. Which of the following is the most common cause of anemia worldwide?
