UCSF Pediatric Reference Cards

Lower respiratory tract infection (LRTI)

Iron deficiency anemia (IDA) vs. Anemia of chronic disease (ACD): 1- check ferritin (Frt): Frt >100 = IDA excluded Frt <50 = IDA is likely Frt 50-100 = boarder line (go to step 2) 2- check Transferrin saturation (T.sat): T.sat >30 = IDA less likely T.sat <25 = IDA is likely T.sat 25-30 = boarder line (go to step 3) 3- check Transferrin (TIBC): TIBC elevated = IDA is very likely TIBC is normal or decreased = IDA is unlikely so far, the most sensitive marker to differentiate between IDA & ACD is: sTfR/log10 ferritin ratio: if > 2 = IDA if <1 = ACD
