Megaloblastic Anemia Part 1: Vitamin B12 Deficiency
Hi! I took quite a long break from uploading because as I was going through Megaloblastic Anemia it was quite difficult to get it straight in my head and I got stuck on how I was going to teach it here. It took quite a while but here we are I finally uploaded Megaloblastic Anemia. This video is comprehensive and covers a lot on megaloblastic anemia. I also just wanted to mention that you can listen to this for reviewing purposes to refresh your memory on things, but I admit this video goes so in depth that I am making a separate one that is a cramming session type of video for megaloblastic Anemia. However, if you are taking a Course on Hematology this video is definitely for you. This video went rather long and so here are the time stamps and the topics that I covered on this video:
00:10 Overview of Megaloblastic Anemia
00:48 Causes of Megaloblastic Anemia
01:02 Why Folic Acid and Vitamin B12 are important for the Body
02:02 Megaloblastic Pattern
03:10 Hematological Features
04:32 Vitamin B12 Deficiency
05:33 Transport and Metabolism of Vitamin B12
07:12 Causes for Vitamin B12 Deficiency
09:03 Pernicious Anemia
09:42 Pathophysiology of Pernicious Anemia
11:33 Clinical Manifestations of Pernicious Anemia
12:12 Subacute Combined Degeneration (SCD)
12:44 Lab Tests: The Schilling Test
15:52 Other Lab tests for Vitamin B12 Deficiency
16:21 Treatment for Vitamin B12 Deficiency
16:59 Response to Therapy
Wow that was long. 😅 See you all on the next one! 😊
