(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.

A. Ferrous sulfate or ferrous gluconate
D) Increased mean corpuscular volume (MCV)
C) Decrease intake of vitamin C while on iron therapy.
Pallor
Fatigue
B. Take on an empty stomach with vitamin C to improve absorption
Used when oral iron isn’t tolerated or absorbed. EX: Iron sucrose, ferumoxytol
Hematocrit (Hct): Low
B) Decreased total iron-binding capacity (TIBC)
Can cause neurological symptoms if untreated
Signs and symptoms
Iron deficiency
- Infancy and Childhood: Rapid growth in infants and toddlers increases iron needs.
DIAGNOSTIC
Chronic Inflammatory Diseases: Conditions like inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), Crohn’s disease, or ulcerative colitis can affect iron absorption.
Common in people with poor diets, alcoholism, or malabsorption issues
A) Take the iron supplement with milk to enhance absorption.
QUESTIONS
- 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.
IRON STUDIES:
TREATMENT
CBC:
- A poor diet lacking in iron-rich foods, such as red meat, leafy greens, beans, and fortified cereals, can lead to iron deficiency.
- Adolescence: Increased iron demand
Stages of iron deficiency anemia
SOB
- Increased iron loss:
Side effects: Constipation, dark stools, nausea.toms of the patient
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
A) Fatigue
USED IN SEVERE CASES
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.
Causes mild to severe anemia depending on the type
Vitamin B12 Deficiency Anemia (Pernicious Anemia)
TYPES OF ANEMIA
Can be caused by autoimmune disease, certain medications, or toxins
1ST LINE OF TREATMENT
Anemia of Chronic Disease (ACD)
C) Low hemoglobin and hematocrit levels
Enhance absorption: Eat with vitamin C (e.g., citrus fruits).
B) Iron supplements may cause stools to become dark or black.
Caused by low levels of vitamin B12
Due to lack of folic acid (a B vitamin)
1. Which of the following is the most common cause of anemia worldwide?
May result from poor intake or inability to absorb B12
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).
IRON SUPPLEMENTS
B) Chronic diseases
C) Iron deficiency
4. A patient with iron deficiency anemia is prescribed oral iron supplements. Which instruction should the nurse include?
D) Genetic disorders
Chronic inflammation or illness (e.g., infections, cancer, autoimmune diseases).
Faster iron repletion in severe cases.
Reticulocyte Count: Low or normal (indicates reduced RBC production)
A rare condition where the bone marrow fails to produce enough red blood cells
A) Vitamin B12 deficiency
BONE MARROW BIOPSY
Craving ice or clay
Cold hands and feet
Folate Deficiency Anemia
Sickle Cell Anemia
Surgery or Trauma: Major surgeries or accidents may lead to blood loss.
BLOOD TRANSFUSION
Palpitations
DIETARY CHANGES
B) Shortness of breath
Anemia is the most common blood disorder, and it affects more than 3 million Americans.
Capacity): HIGH
Especially important during pregnancy
Iron deficiency anemia is a common type of anemia
Aplastic Anemia
Leads to chronic anemia, pain crises, and organ damage
- Pregnancy: Pregnant women require more iron to support the developing fetus and increase blood volume.
Inherited blood disorder that affects hemoglobin production
MCV (Mean Corpuscular Volume): LOW
stage 3 - Hemoglobin drops below the normal range.
Gastric Surgery: Procedures like gastric bypass reduce the stomach’s ability to absorb iron.
Brittle nails
3. Which laboratory finding is most indicative of iron deficiency anemia?
RBC Count: Low or normal
Thalassemia
Avoid inhibitors: Don’t take iron with dairy, coffee, or tea.
RISK FACTORS
Increased iron requirements:
TIBC (Total Iron-Binding
Rarely performed but can be used to confirm iron deficiency if other diagnostics are inconclusive.
A) Elevated serum ferritin
Ferritin: LOW
Hemoglobin (Hgb): Low
- Gastrointestinal Bleeding: Conditions like ulcers, gastritis, or hemorrhoids can cause chronic blood loss.
- Impaired iron absorption:
Stage 1 - Iron stores decrease. Your low iron supply hasn’t affected your red blood cells yet.
2. Which of the following is NOT a common symptom of iron deficiency anemia?
Dizziness
Celiac Disease: A disorder that affects nutrient absorption in the small intestine.
-
Inherited disorder where red blood cells become crescent-shaped and break down easily
D) Take iron supplements immediately before bedtime.
