Past Medical & Surgical History, Pathophysiology of medical diagnoses (with APA citations) 1. Iron Deficiency Anemia: The most commonly occuring cause of anemia. Iron deficiency results in the lack of iron for hemoglobin synthesis within the body. This may be a result of low intake, diminished absorption, physiological increase in requirements, excessive iron loss, chronic renal failure, hemodyalisis, and idiopathic iron loss. (Copstead & Banasik, 2013) KG receives frequent blood transfusions to…

In this experiment we aim to that % hemolysis is going to decrease as osmolality increases because the more concentrate is the solution, the less cells going through hemolysis. Thus, there is not enough water entering the cell to produces the cells to burst. The main clue is when the water is completely dilute, so we have 100% hemolysis. Hemolysis is correlated with the behavior of the cell specifically refers as hypotonic. The results correlated with the raised hypothesis, the data overall…
