Erythropenia

Erythropenia is a condition when the number of red blood cells in the blood decreases. This can cause anemia if the red blood cells cannot provide enough oxygen to the tissues.

The causes of erythropenia can be different. For example, this may be due to blood loss due to injury, surgery, bleeding, as well as impaired formation of red blood cells in the bone marrow.

If erythropenia is accompanied by a decrease in the level of hemoglobin in the blood, then this is called hypochromic anemia. If the hemoglobin level remains normal, then this is normochromic anemia.

Diagnosis of erythropenia includes a blood test, which determines the level of red blood cells, hemoglobin and other blood parameters. Treatment depends on the cause of the erythropenia and may include blood transfusions, medications to stimulate red blood cell production, and other methods.



Symptoms: Erythropenia is a decrease in the number of red blood cells in the human bloodstream and tissue hypoxia. To make a diagnosis, it is necessary to conduct laboratory tests: a detailed blood and urine test. The doctor evaluates the level of hemoglobin and red blood cells - the smaller the blood volume, the less saturated its composition with hemoglobin. A lack of red blood cells cannot be diagnosed without additional information. The patient has the following symptoms: * general weakness and fatigue; * loss of appetite and weight loss; * sleep disturbance, feelings of anxiety and restlessness; * shortness of breath during exercise and at rest;



Erythropenia is a condition in which the number of red blood cells in the body decreases, which leads to low oxygen content in the blood and a general deterioration in its composition. People of different age groups face this problem, but most often the disease is diagnosed in children, especially newborns. If the disease is ignored, the symptoms threaten the child’s life. The doctor will calculate the calculation of hemoglobin, iron deficiency anemia and diabetes mellitus, and only after these tests will he prescribe the necessary therapy. If treatment is prescribed late, the child will develop heart and pulmonary failure. Erythropenia can have various causes, such as impaired bone marrow function, inflammation in the kidneys or lungs, as well as hereditary and acquired diseases. Symptoms of erythropenia may include pale skin, dizziness, weakness, shortness of breath, and increased heart rate. To diagnose the disease, the doctor collects the patient's medical history and performs a blood test, which shows a low level of red blood cells. Treatment of erythropenia includes nutritional correction, taking medications to stimulate the production of red blood cells and other rehabilitation methods. An important factor is the creation of comfortable conditions that contribute to improving the quality of life processes. Prevention of the disease consists
