► THIS VIDEO will be a comprehensive lecture on disorders of the red cell, specifically tailored for medicine students. 🩸📚 In this informative session, you'll gain valuable insights into various aspects of red cell disorders, including their prevalence, causes, and classification. 📊💉
Red cell disorders are among the most prevalent medical conditions worldwide, and understanding them is crucial for medical professionals. Anemia, which can result from factors like iron deficiency, haemoglobinopathy, and chronic infection, will be explored in depth. 🔍🦠
The lecture delves into haemolytic anaemia, where the lifespan of red cells is shortened, and polycythemia, which can result from myeloproliferative diseases or hypoxia-induced responses. 📈🩹
We'll start by examining the structure of red cells, their origin from erythroblasts in the bone marrow, and their vital role in oxygen transport. The video explains how erythropoietin regulates their production and highlights the lack of a nucleus in red cells, limiting their lifespan to approximately 120 days. 🏥🩺
Anemia is a widespread condition, but its definition must consider factors like the patient's age and gender. A detailed table illustrates typical haemoglobin concentrations at different ages, emphasizing gender-specific differences. 💡👩⚕️👨⚕️
The lecture covers common symptoms of anemia, including fatigue, shortness of breath, poor concentration, palpitations, and pallor. 🤕❗️
To classify anemia effectively, we will explore the analysis of red cell volume. The lecture provides a comprehensive overview of microcytic hypochromic, normocytic normochromic, and macrocytic anemias, along with their subtypes. 📉🔬
The focus then shifts to iron deficiency, its physiology within the body, and the importance of regulating iron intake. 💪🌾 The video discusses how iron is predominantly utilized for the production of hemoglobin and takes you through the intricate process of hemoglobin synthesis. 🌡️🔨
Iron deficiency, a widespread issue, can result from various causes, such as chronic blood loss and gastrointestinal conditions. 🩸🔍 It also emphasizes the importance of investigating gastrointestinal causes in non-menstruating individuals. 🚺🚹
Treatment options for iron deficiency, including oral and intravenous iron supplementation, are explained, and the lecture features a real-life blood film to illustrate iron deficiency characteristics. 📋💊

Perniciosus anemia. Thank you.
What causes the red blood cells to be come crescent moon structure in sickle cell anemia?

Hi@@gike237 , many thanks for your comment! The crescent moon-shaped red blood cells in sickle cell anemia are a consequence of the abnormal hemoglobin S molecules polymerizing and distorting the shape of the red blood cells under certain conditions. In other words, the red blood cells become crescent moon-shaped due to a genetic mutation in the hemoglobin protein. Hope this could be helpful!
Dr. Sir/Madam,
This is very EDUCATIONAL & INFORMATIVE knowledge.👍💖💖💖🇵🇭
