Free Picture: CDC EIS Officer Examining the Palpebral Conjunctiva of a Nigerian Child with Anemia Symptoms Image URL   E-Mail   Forum BB   HTML   MySpace

Description
Photo of an EIS officer examining the palpebral conjunctiva of a Nigerian child suspected of having anemia.

Several CDC-led relief camps were set up around Nigeria during the Biafran war to aid the refugees of local villages. Assessment of anemia in these relief clinics was difficult, but if the palpebral conjunctiva was paled out to white, the hemoglobin count was usually found to be less than 5gms/dl.
