About this resource

Six markers, four patterns, the treatment ladder, and the IV referral triggers. Iron deficiency literacy for the dietitian.

Six-page clinical reference. The six iron markers, four classic patterns, the treatment ladder, and the IV referral triggers. The cheat sheet you reach for when the lab result lands.

What's inside

The six iron-panel markers (ferritin, TSAT, MCV, MCH, sTfR, hepcidin). The four patterns (absolute deficiency, functional deficiency, anaemia of chronic disease, mixed). The treatment ladder (oral → enteric-coated → alternate-day → IV). The four IV-referral triggers.

Who it's for

Endometriosis, gynae, prenatal, IBD and CKD dietitians. Any clinician whose caseload includes iron-deficient patients.
