Infant with severe anemia
Question 1 of 5
Which of the following reticulocyte count is an indicator of severe anemia for an infant?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C (0.50%). In infants, a reticulocyte count below 1% is indicative of severe anemia due to the immature red blood cells not being produced adequately to compensate for the anemia. A count of 0.50% falls below this critical threshold, signaling a severe deficiency in red blood cell production.
Choices A, B, and D are above 1%, indicating better red blood cell production and less severe anemia.
