Iron deficiency anemia is a common type of anemia — a condition in which blood lacks adequate healthy red blood cells. Red blood cells carry oxygen to the body's tissues. As the name implies, iron deficiency anemia is due to insufficient iron.
Iron-deficiency anemia is diagnosed by blood tests that should include a complete blood count (CBC). Additional tests may be ordered to evaluate the levels of serum ferritin, iron, total iron-binding capacity, and/or transferrin.
Iron Deficiency Anemia (IDA)
ICD-10 code E61. 1 for Iron deficiency is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Endocrine, nutritional and metabolic diseases .
Common Causes. Common causes of IDA include a diet that is low in iron, the body not being able to absorb iron, heavy menstrual bleeding, internal bleeding, pregnancy, chronic kidney disease, and chronic conditions that cause ongoing inflammation.
IDA is a common type of anemia Without enough iron, your body starts using the iron it has stored. Soon, the stored iron gets used up. Without iron, your body cannot produce the number of normal red blood cells needed to keep you in good health.
The International Development Association (IDA) is the part of the World Bank that helps the world's poorest countries.
Article Sections. The prevalence of iron deficiency anemia is 2 percent in adult men, 9 to 12 percent in non-Hispanic white women, and nearly 20 percent in black and Mexican-American women. Nine percent of patients older than 65 years with iron deficiency anemia have a gastrointestinal cancer when evaluated.
Many types of anemia exist, such as iron-deficiency anemia, pernicious anemia, aplastic anemia, and hemo- lytic anemia. The different types of anemia are linked to various diseases and conditions. Anemia can affect people of all ages, races, and ethnici- ties.
It's the most common form of anemia. It happens when your body doesn't have enough iron to make hemoglobin, a substance in your red blood cell that allows them to carry oxygen throughout your body.
