Conceptual frame work Modified conceptual framework based on Ernestine Wiedenbach Model of Nursing practice – A helping Art of Theory (1969) was adopted. This model explains the entire research work carried out iron deficiency anaemic adolescent girls and the purpose was to increase the haemoglobin levels of iron deficiency anaemic adolescent girls. 1. Identifying the need for help Pre-test assessment of behaviour of ADHD children was assessed by Conner’s parent rating scale and Conner’s teacher rating scale. II Ministering the needed
One remedy for fighting Anemia involves combining apple juice and beetroot juice. While it is important to eat a few whole apples daily, mixing apples with beets increases the chance of fighting off anemia. Why? Beets are high in folic acid, fiber, and potassium, which adds to the effects of iron filled apples. For this particular remedy, mix apple juice with beetroot juice. Add honey to the mixture and stir well. Try to drink this remedy twice a day to battle anemia.
Iron Deficiency Anemia affects millions of individuals across the world. This disease strikes many more women than men and has harmful effects on all who suffer from this deficiency that causes oxygen-carrying capacity to decrease. The causes can vary amongst different groups, but the aggravating symptoms remain constant. Much of the research on Iron Deficiency Anemia concentrates on not only the treatment of this disease, but also the prevention of it. To attain a better understanding of how to treat this problem, one must clearly know what Iron Deficiency Anemia means, what causes this disease, the effects of it, and finally how to cure it.
According to the information of Nikoleta’s case, Cooley’s anemia has features that the beta proteins of hemoglobin do not function properly. This is caused my mutations in the beta chain of the hemoglobin molecule. The symptoms of Cooley’s anemia matches the symptoms of Nikoleta. The main reason why giving a high iron formula did the opposite is that the constant buildup of iron causes the symptoms to grow worse, and can even result in heart failure in the future. Cooley’s anemia decrease the red blood cell’s ability to deliver oxygen to certain tissues. The number of red blood cells are high, however, the number of hemoglobin is very
Iron is notoriously low in the American diet; especially in children one to two years old, and in women ages 12 to 50. Surprisingly, it is also low among athletes, who pack their diets so full of carbohydrates that they tend to omit iron-rich foods.
The next factor in fighting and treating anemia is to eat plenty of green and red vegetables, and plenty of fruits along with exercise.
In the beginning of every cross country season, my coach stressed the importance that all the female runners must take one iron pill a day. I never gave in to this because he never gave us an explanation, so I saw this as merely a mental booster rather than actual improvement present in my body. After doing some research, I found out that iron is an essential nutrient used by the human body for to transport oxygen and produce energy. Iron is present in every single cell of the body and carries oxygen from the lungs to the tissue in the form of hemoglobin, which is the oxygen-transport protein in red blood cells. Lack of iron results in both fatigue and weakness, which is definitely harmful to a cross country runner. Iron deficiency affects women about 8-10 times more than men, which is why it is crucial for women runners to watch their iron levels (Sinclair, Hinton). If iron deficiency worsens, it can lead to anemia. Anemia is when you do not have enough red blood cells, and as a result, less hemoglobin. If a cross country runner has anemia, it can affect their whole season because they are exerting energy without the sufficient amount of oxygen needed to complete each run or workout.
Foods that are rich in iron are “meat, poultry, fish, eggs, dairy products, green, leafy vegetables [and] dried fruit” (Peterson, 2012). In addition, an anemic person should decrease the amounts of coffee and tea consumed since they interfere with adequate iron absorption. Instead foods and beverages high in vitamin C should be consume since they aid in iron absorption (Peterson, 2012). In rare cases iron can be given intravenously but can potentially produce serious allergic reactions as a side effect (Microcytic Anemia,
Therefore, the amount of hemoglobin in blood is critical to a runner’s capacity to compete. As hemoglobin levels drop, so does an athlete’s ability to perform. Without this knowledge, many runners can potentially suffer from symptoms of an iron deficiency without understanding how or why they can no longer perform as they once could. The directly proportional relationship between the amount of hemoglobin, and therefore iron, and a runner’s ability to compete is important for athletes to understand. Information provided by the medical community can help to ultimately prevent a deficiency from occurring. However, through iron supplementation, athletes can return their levels to the healthy standard to decrease the effect of iron deficiency symptoms on their ability to compete. The authors summarize their findings in the study of treating fatigue in nonanemic female patients with low serum ferritin concentration by providing intravenous iron
Hemochromic Microcytic Anemia is a type of anemia distinguished by having small red blood cells called microcytes. Additionally these red blood cells are hypochromic, which means paler than usual. Therefore Microcytic hypochromic anemia refers to the condition where the patient's red blood cells are smaller (microcytic) and pale ( hypochromic) than in a normal healthy adult (Hampel, Eliana, & Edward, 2016). This type of anemia is associated with iron deficiency. Iron deficiency is the most common Micronutrient Deficiency(MND) worldwide and leads to hypochromic microcytic anemia, as well as impaired immune and endocrine function (Bailey, West, & Black 2015). Iron deficiency accounts for anemia in 5% of american woman and 2% american men (Wimbley,& Graham, 2011). Depending of the severity and cause of the anemia, treatment will vary. Signs and symptoms of this disease include fatigue, loss of stamina, weakness, dizziness, pallor, and shortness of breath. A case study of this disease will be presented to outline risk factors, clinical manifestations, and goals of treatment using evidence based interventions and practice.
Iron deficiency anemia is the most common form of anemia. Approximately twenty percent of women, fifty percent of pregnant women, and three percent of men have an iron deficiency. Iron is an essential part of of hemoglobin. Iron is normally obtained through the food we eat and by the recycling of iron from older red blood cells. High-risk groups include: women who have blood loss through discharge; pregnant or nursing women who have an increased need for iron; babys, kids, and adolescents, and people with a bad dietary intake of iron from a diet of little or no meat or eggs for many years.
There is about 3.47 mg of iron present in every gram of hemoglobin, consequently, every milliliter of blood lost produces a loss of 0.5 mg of iron (Harper, 2012). The complete blood count details the seriousness of the anemia. Microcytic and hypochromic erythropoiesis is demonstrated in chronic iron deficiency anemia (Harper, 2012).
The present investigation was undertaken to evaluate the physicochemical characteristics of mango, grapefruit and strawberry juice and identification of phenolic acids and flavonoids compounds using HPLC. Also the present study aimed to investigate the effects of mango, grapefruit and strawberry juice at a dose of 1ml/day (was taken orally) to streptozotocin - induced diabetic rats for four weeks on serum triglycerides (TAG), serum glucose, serum insulin, total lipid (TL), total cholesterol (TC), low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) in diabetic rats compared with control negative rats and diabetic rats fed on different fruit juice.
If you suffer from diabetes or hypoglycemia, use only vegetables in your juices. Drinking juice made of fruit can drastically increase your blood sugar. Keep track of what goes into your juices to make sure you are not exceeding your daily nutritional needs. Vegetables seldom present a blood glucose concern, but keep in mind some vegetables can affect blood coagulation, an important consideration if you are using prescription blood
For the purposes of this study.We used a linear regression model to determine the nature of the relationship between Iron and Blood as follows :(Regis Bourbonnais,2000)
