Question | Answer |
what role does iron supplements/diet play in prevention of anemia? | to provide amt of iron not rec'd by pt diet. Iron aids in RBC production. |
compare/contrast pathogenic/opportunistic organisms. | Pathogenic can infect healthy system. Opportunistic happens with a compromised immune system. |
MCV normal value..what does it measure.. | 80-95. size |
