    1. ANEMIA

    2. Functions of erythrocytes Transport of respiratory gases Large surface area : volume ratio Flexible biconcave disc Haemoglobin for exchange of gases Capable of glycolysis for the source of energy for cell survival

    3. Erythrocyte disorders Qualitative Haemoglobin defect (Anemia, Thalassaemia, sickle cell anemia etc) Membrane & enzyme abnormalities (G6PD, eliptocytosis, stomato-ovalocytosis) Quantitative Increased (polycythemia) inherited / acquired Decrease (inherited / acquired hypoplasia) Bleeding

    4. Anaemia Reduction in circulation haemoglobin Nutritional deficiency anaemias Iron deficiency B12 & folate deficiency anaemia Protein deficiency anaemia Scurvy & other element deficiency
