Detailed explanation-1: -If you aren’t consuming enough iron, or if you’re losing too much iron, your body can’t produce enough hemoglobin, and iron deficiency anemia will eventually develop. Causes of iron deficiency anemia include: Blood loss. Blood contains iron within red blood cells.
Detailed explanation-2: -Anemia correlates with cardiovascular disease, lower eGFR, additional adverse outcomes.
Detailed explanation-3: -Nursing Diagnosis Based on the assessment data, the major nursing diagnoses are: Fatigue related to decreased hemoglobin and diminished oxygen-carrying capacity of the blood.
