What are the 3 stages of iron deficiency?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
The first stage is "iron depletion" where iron stores are used up to correct the deficiency. The second stage is "reduced red blood cell formation" where iron supply is not enough to support RBC formation. The third and final stage is "iron deficiency anemia" where hemoglobin concentration is affected and drops below the normal range.

View allI'm a bit worried about my recent lab results. My neutrophils are low at 46 and my lymphocytes are a bit high at 50. My ferritin is really low at 16 ngml, but my H. Pylori IgG and IgA are negative. Should I be concerned about the low ferritin or the imbalance between my neutrophils and lymphocytes? Everything else like WBC, RBC, and platelets is normal, but I'm not sure about these few things. Can you help me understand what these mean for my health?
Since your H.Pylori IgG and IgA tests are negative, there is no evidence of an active H.Pylori infection. Overall, your results indicate a mild imbalance in your immune cell counts, but nothing alarming. It would be advisable to focus on maintaining a healthy lifestyle and follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation if needed.

My patient has hemophilia with a factor VIII assay showing activity at 19.5 before surgery how much cryoprecipitate should we give to manage bleeding risks during the procedure
For a hemophilia patient with Factor VIII activity at 19.5%, you'd typically give cryoprecipitate to raise levels above 50% pre-surgery. The exact amount depends on weight and procedure type, so consult a hematologist for dosing protocol.
