A Focused Approach to Anemia RALPH CARMEL Cornell University Case Commentary: PETER A. CASSILETH University of Miami If all the elements of the complete blood cell count are considered in clinical context, they can provide an invaluable guide to the possible causes of a patient's anemia and the tests needed for definitive diagnosis. Unnecessary tests not only add to the expense of treatment but may result in delayed diagnosis and inappropriate treatment in some cases. Dr. Carmel is Professor, Department of Medicine, Cornell University Joan and Sanford I. Weill Medical College and Graduate School of Medical Sciences, New York, N. Y., and Director of Research, New York Methodist Hospital, Brooklyn. Dr. Cassileth is Professor and Chair, Division of Hematology-Oncology, Department of Medicine, University of Miami School of Medicine.

Anemia is defined as a low HCT and Hb. Changes in intravascular volume can be reflected in the hematocrit. Fluid overload leads to hemodilution and a lower HCT, whereas volume contraction can yield a spuriously elevated HCT even in the face of anemia. Fluids and blood products equilibrate in the circulation within 15 to 30 minutes. Signs and symptoms of anemia. Symptoms.

Aplastic Anemia and Myelodysplastic Syndromes are diseases that cause bone marrow failure that result in decreased production of red cells, white cells and platelets. Each disease may have multiple causes, either acquired or inherited. Acquired causes include exposure to certain chemicals, drugs, pesticides, excessive radiation or viral infections. Inherited disease is caused by a genetic disorder. Treatments include drug therapies and bone marrow transplantation. These important goals of the EJGAAF are achieved through your support!

TCM Hospital: Aplastic Anemia And Traditional Chinese Medicine In China Aplastic anemia is a clinical syndrome caused by a variety of etiological factors (some of them are unknown) which lead to hematopoietic disorder of bone marrow. Clinically, it is characterized by panhematopenia resulting in anemia, hemorrhage and infections. The disease often occurs in young adults. It is more common in males than in female. In TCM, it is categorized as "xu lao" (consumptive disease), "xue zheng" (blood trouble), etc. Main Points of Diagnosis According to the clinical features and pictures of bone marrow, the disease can be divided into two types¡ªacute and chronic. 1. Acute aplastic anemia: The onset is abrupt with rapid progress of the disease. There are marked symptoms of anemia, hemorrhage and infection, particularly symptoms of severe and extensive bleeding. Intracranial hemorrhage is the leading cause of death. 2.Chronic aplastic anemia: The onset of the disease is slow, and the course is persistent. Anemia is the major symptom, while the symptoms of hemorrhage and infection are relatively mild and easy to be controlled.
