| Iron Deficiency Anemia | shortage of iron in body-w/o enough iron cannot produce hemoglobin, hemoglobin enables RBC to cary O2, Causes-blood loss, lack of iron in diet, inability to absorb(intestinal disease/meds), pregnancy, slow bleed in intestines, ulcer |
| Iton Deficiency anemia Risk factors | malnutrition, chronic disease, intense physical training-destroys RBC, prologned use of analgesics-impairs RBC formation, family history, heaby menstration-depletes RBC, medical treatents-chemotherapy and radiation |

| Sickle cell crisis-and prevention | risk for sc crisis is greater during exercise in hot/humid. high altitude environments, mimics heat illness, cardiac arrest, Prevention-acclimatization, hydration |
| Sickle cell trait is a factor for? | Exertional rhabodomyolsis-sudden metabolic break down of skeletal muscle-myoglobin and enzymes from damaged muscle enter bloodstream-acute renal failure, shcok death may result from protiens and enzymes blocking kidney function |
| Sickle Cell Trait Tx | no cure, avoid crisis, releive symptoms, folic acid-bone marrow needs fa to make rbc, drink h2o-blood stays diluted, aboid excessive heat, avoid excessive exercise, avoid high altitude |
