It is not a specific disease but the result of some disease process. How is anemia diagnosed? The most easily observed sign of anemia is a loss of the normal pink color of the gingiva (gums). Anemic cats also have little stamina so they seem very listless or tired. Pale gingiva and lethargy make us want to perform some tests on blood to document anemia. There are several tests that are performed on the red blood cells. The most common test for anemia is the

Home Services Contact Links ... Chemotherapy Drugs Anemia Anemia is defined as lowering of red blood cells and disruption of their most important function carrying oxygen. In cancer patients, it may be mild to severe and may be attributable to a variety of causes. Severity of anemia may increase as the disease progresses. Causes: Reduced production of blood from bone marrow, which is normally due to suppression of bone marrow by the cancer. Some cancers produce substances with a direct negative impact on the bone marrow; other cancers can spread and occupy the bone marrow space and interfere with blood production. In most instances, treatment of cancer also harms the bone marrow. Chemotherapy and Radiation therapy may both cause anemia. Bleeding may occur in cancer patients and result in anemia. Blood loss could be directly from the cancer site, as in colon cancer where bleeding occurs inside the large bowel. It may also be due to other causes. Cancer treatment can cause lowering of platelets which can make patients prone to bleeding. Most common sites for this kind of bleeding are the stomach and bowels, under the skin, gums, in the urine, etc.

Hemoglobinopathies and Thalassemias I. Introduction It has been said that all damage to the body from any pathologic state in the end is caused by hypoxia at some level. If this is true, the story of pathology is the story of hypoxia. Preventing or correcting hypoxia is then the ultimate goal of all medical specialties. Pulmonologists and cardiologists deal with hypoxia at the gross mechanical level, but hematologists do so at the finer cellular and molecular levels. The physicochemical properties of hemoglobin and biochemical housekeeping in the erythrocyte are both in their purview, but what hematologists contend with at the grossest level is anemia. II.

Como prevenir la anemia por falta de Hierro Dr. José Alberto García Aranda ¿Cual es la función del hierro? El hierro es un metal muy importante en la nutrición del ser humano, ya que se encarga de mantener los niveles de una fracción de los glóbulos rojos llamada hemoglobina. Esta hemoglobina es la sustancia encargada de llevar el oxigeno a todo el cuerpo humano además de regresar al pulmón el bióxido de carbono que se produce en las células. ¿Como adquiere el hierro el ser humano? Definitivamente el hierro se adquiere por fuentes externas, es decir que está contenido en los alimentos que consume el niño. Al inicio de la vida el hierro que contiene la leche de la mamá, aunque es poco (1mg/l) es suficiente para mantener los niveles de hemoglobina durante los primeros seis meses de vida. Esto se explica por el hecho que el hierro contenido en la leche del seno materno esta mejor preparado para absorberse en el intestino. Por otro lado, la leche de vaca que contiene la misma cantidad de hierro que tiene la leche materna es insuficiente para mantener los niveles de hemoglobina a cualquier edad, por lo que si su niño consume leche de vaca como único alimento esta en grave riesgo de padecer de hemoglobina baja. Existen en el mercado nacional leches industrializadas para niños, todas ellas derivadas de la leche de vaca, a las que se adiciona de suficiente cantidad de hierro para evitar deficiencias de este elemento en los niños que las consumen. Sin embargo existe un grupo de la población que no tiene los recursos necesarios para adquirir este tipo de leches y que les ofrecen a sus hijos leche de vaca entera, a este grupo deberá adicionarse si el niño es mayor de cuatro meses de edad otros alimentos que contienen hierro.

View All Chapters Find Your Local Chapter June 6, 2004 Before You're Pregnant During Your Pregnancy Complications Caring for Your Baby ... [View All Articles] Anemia What you need to know: Anemia is a common condition in pregnancy. It means that the number and/or size of the person’s red blood cells are below normal. Red blood cells carry oxygen around your body and to your baby. The usual cause of anemia in pregnancy is iron deficiency. Iron helps create red blood cells. The recommended amount of iron you need each day doubles during pregnancy from about 15 milligrams (mg) per day to 30 mg per day. Most pregnant women get this amount from a combination of eating foods that contain iron and taking a prenatal vitamin. Some women need additional iron supplements to keep their levels of hemoglobin (a protein in red blood cells that contains iron and carries oxygen) in a normal range. Anemia, unless it is severe, is unlikely to harm your baby, although iron deficiency has been linked to an increased risk of preterm birth and low birthweight . Anemia can also make you feel more tired than usual during your pregnancy. What you can do: You will probably be tested for anemia at least twice during your pregnancy—at your first prenatal visit and then again between 24 and 28 weeks. If you are anemic your health care provider may prescribe an iron supplement. You can help reduce your risk of anemia by eating foods that contain iron all throughout your pregnancy. These include:

The term anemia has been used incorrectly as a diagnosis; more properly, it denotes a complex of signs and symptoms. The type of anemia defines its pathophysiologic mechanism and its essential nature, allowing for appropriate therapy. Not investigating mild anemia is a serious error; its presence indicates an underlying disorder, and its severity reveals little about its genesis or true clinical significance.

FELINE INFECTIOUS ANEMIA What is Feline Infectious Anemia and what does it do to the cat? Feline Infectious Anemia (FIA) is a blood disease of cats caused by Hemobartonella felis (H. felis). H. felis attaches to the cat's red blood cells. When the immune system detects this abnormality, it destroys the blood cells. This results in the cat having a shortage of red blood cells, which is the same as being anemic. How does a cat get FIA? We are not sure of the means of transmission of FIA. There is speculation that it can be passed from one cat to another by insects that can carry blood; fleas, ticks, and mosquitoes have been considered potential vectors (carriers) of the parasite between cats. However, none of these have been proven. How is FIA diagnosed? The presence of H. felis on a few red blood cells does not mean that the cat has Feline Infectious Anemia. In fact, H. felis is commonly found on the red blood cells of normal cats. In almost all cases of FIA, the cat has encountered another disease or another form of stress. This state of debilitation then triggers H. felis
