Generally, the most common phenomenon in cases of anemia is iron deficiency. So, anemia due to iron deficiency is the most commonly observed type of anemia. However, being the most common does not necessarily mean that the source of the problem is iron deficiency. Anemia is a phenomenon whose source must be investigated by evaluating the person's age, gender, ethnicity and genetic structure.<\/p>\n
World Health Organization, anemia After diagnosing anemia based on hemoglobin level, the type of anemia must also be investigated. One of the most important markers in this research is the blood marker called MCV. MCV (mean corpuscular volume) is a parameter that measures the volume of an average red blood cell. In case of low hemoglobin level, usually the next step is to check the MCV level. Since both parameters are already included in the complete blood count, this parameter can be checked without the need for an extra examination. Anemia Classification According to Morphological Structure is shown in the table below:<\/p>\n Pallor (pale color on the palate, inside the eyelid)<\/strong> One or more of these symptoms may manifest themselves. The same symptoms are not observed in every individual, and symptoms may differ depending on the type and level of anemia. Most of the time, the only symptom is early fatigue.<\/p>\n When looking at clinical findings, it is also very important to investigate the patient's medical history. In particular, the following elements should be mentioned:<\/p>\n \u2013 Bleeding (recent surgery, trauma, blood in the stool or heavy menstrual bleeding in women)<\/strong> In cases of anemia caused by iron deficiency, hemoglobin and MCV levels tend to be below normal. If there is no known genetic family history, chronic disease or recent medication use, iron deficiency is the first thing that comes to mind. To diagnose iron deficiency, it is necessary to have a blood test and examine the following parameters:<\/p>\n - Iron<\/strong> Suspicion of iron deficiency will increase in cases where the ferritin level is low and the total iron binding capacity is high. In cases where the ferritin level is normal or high, and if the binding capacity is normal or below normal, the possibility of thalassemia carrier status can be considered.<\/p>\n Treatment will vary depending on the cause of the anemia. While iron supplementation may be appropriate in some cases, EPO supplementation may be considered in cases of chronic renal failure, vitamin B6 supplementation in cases of sideroblastic anemia, and blood supplementation in case of blood loss. It is not right to use iron supplements or try to correct anemia with other methods without investigating the cause. If anemia is suspected, consult your doctor and have the necessary tests done.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Anemi (veya halk aras\u0131ndaki tabiri ile kans\u0131zl\u0131k), v\u00fccutta dola\u015fan alyuvarlar\u0131n (k\u0131rm\u0131z\u0131 k\u00fcre) say\u0131s\u0131n\u0131n azalmas\u0131 ve buna paralel olarak hemoglobin, hematokrit konsantrasyonunun d\u00fc\u015fmesi anlam\u0131n\u0131 ta\u015f\u0131r.
