Iron deficiency anemia

Anemia is a decrease in hemoglobin in the blood (violation of transport properties), manifested by oxygen deficiency, disruption of oxidative processes, ischemia of organs and tissues, and all cells of the body.

Anemia is observed with: 1. blood loss 2. chronic hemolysis 3. chronic diseases of the stomach, intestines, liver, pancreas, helminthiasis 4. myoglobinemia 5. overhydration (edema of the lead membrane of the eye) 6. cirrhosis of the liver. Based on the number of red blood cells, anemia is divided into mild, moderate and severe anemia. Mild anemia (hemoglobin level less than 90 g/l), which occurs in healthy pregnant women in the 2nd-3rd trimester, belongs to this type of anemia. The same is observed with blood loss in convalescents after acute infectious diseases accompanied by bleeding, with blood loss in patients as a result of increased diuresis due to inflammation of the renal pelvis and other pathological processes. Anemia of moderate severity (hemoglobin level 70-90 g\l) includes all forms with large blood loss during acute processes with chronic posthemorrhagic anemia caused by gastric and duodenal ulcers, hemorrhoids



Iron deficiency anemia

Iron deficiency anemia (IDA) is a disease associated with impaired iron metabolism in the human body. It is caused by insufficient supply of microelements to the body, which leads to a decrease in the level of hemoglobin in the blood and disruption of oxygen exchange in tissues. One of the main causes of the disease
