Question
On Greg's last visit to his doctor, he complained of feeling
tired. His doctor orders a blood test for iron. Sandra, the
registered nurse, does a venipuncture and withdraws 8.0 mL
of blood. About 70% of the iron in the body is used to form
hemoglobin, which is a protein in the red blood cells that
carries oxygen to the cells of the body. About 30% is stored in
ferritin, bone marrow, and the liver. When the iron level is low,
a person may have fatigue and decreased immunity.
The normal range for serum iron in men is 80 to 160
mcg/dL. Greg's iron test showed a blood serum iron level of
42 mcg/dL, which indicates that Greg has iron deficiency
anemia. His doctor orders an iron supplement to be taken
twice daily (b.i.d.).
Part C
How many grams of iron will Greg consume in one week?
One tablet of the iron supplement contains 110 mg of iron.
Express the mass in grams to two significant figures.
ArtareMad
Iron
Each tablet contains 110 mg of iron, which is given for
iron supplementation.
