rarely acquired--- toxin , neoplasms |
|
classifications
|
1 structural hemoglobinopaties- mutated amino acids sequences . as in
a) abnormal polymerization-( Hb S) b)reduced solubility c) altered oxygen affinity - 2 types-- 1- increased oxygen affinity-- hb zurich 2... decrease oxygen affinity.. hb kansee d) talasemia f) herediatery persistence of hm F e)acquered hemoglobinopathy--- methhemoglobinemia |
|
description
|
oxydation of Hb from ferrous( Fe ++) to ferric ( Fe+++) stated wich doesnot transfer oxygen
may be due to 1. globin mutation leading to methhemoglobin formation ( M Hb) 2 toxic ' oxydation"; to meth hemoglobinemia by foreign sunstances ( acetanilid, phenacetin, nitrites, anilin and many others) |
|
ts steps
|
M Hb- no tx
reductase deficience- oral methylene blue ( 1 mgt/ kg IV in emergency situation or orally in milder forms or vit C |
