THANKS Cardio for all the questions and explanations.
E. physiological anemia?

thank u
"E"
with increase in oxygen saturation the EPO level decreases leading to dec in RBC synthesis
thank you
Physiologic nadir happen ~ around 6- 9 wks dec Hb & adult form take over ( 9-11 norm)
*E* correct.
oh ok, thanks for the explanation.

I was between "normal development" and "AIHA" the reason i picked AIHA was because the patient had mild respiratory symptoms and the patient is a few weeks old where Mycoplasma Pneumonia can occur in such patients. But I guess the clinical symptoms with mycoplasma would be more severe (i.e. atypical pneumonia like) than just mild respiratory symtoms.
@alicia if you note only Hb dec and the rest norm. No red flag comes up. Welcome I post q in forum try it.
Pat with very high levels "aldosterone" otherwise normal kidney function, ~ what % of the filtered load of Na would be reabsorbed by the DCT & collecting duct?
