    Thalassemia is an inherited blood disorder characterized by abnormal hemoglobin formation. It results in excessive destruction of red blood cells and anemia. There are two main types: alpha thalassemia and beta thalassemia. Risk factors include family history and iron overload. Symptoms include pale skin, fatigue, enlarged liver, bone abnormalities, slow growth, and shortness of breath. Diagnosis involves blood tests, electrophoresis, and bone marrow examination. Management includes blood transfusions, iron chelation therapy, folic acid supplements, bone marrow transplantation, splenectomy, and dietary changes like an iron-rich diet. Complications can include bone deformities, heart problems, and slow growth. Nursing care focuses

     DEFINITION
    2. hemoglobin
    According to Barbra k.timby
    Talassemia is may be defiend as it is the 3. mutation in DNA
