ANEMIA 2014

The anemia is a low concentration of hemoglobin in the blood. It is detected by a laboratory analysis where a level of hemoglobin is discovered in the minor blood of the normal thing. It can come also with a decrease of the number of red blood cells, or decrease of the hematocrito, but it is not possible to define as a decrease of the quantity of red blood cells, for which these blood cells can change in size, sometimes the number of red blood cells is normal and nevertheless the anemia exists type 1.

CAUSES The red blood cells can diminish for three principal motives:

1. Because they do not take place sufficient, in the

infiltration of the bony marrow for tumors, in the anemia

produced by deficit of iron, in the anemia that he

accompanies on many chronic diseases as the rheumatic

ones and in the disease that is associated with the renal

chronic insufficiency.

2. Because there is a problem in the ripeness of the red

blood cells in the bony marrow where they are formed.

This happens in anemias with deficit of vitamin B12 or of

folatos, like in other hematologic diseases like the

refractory anemias.

3. Because they are destroyed or get lost to major speed. It

can be for the sharp loss of blood that takes place in the

hemorrhages of any type, for the hemólisis or break

intravascular of the red blood cells of reason

Symptoms of the anemia

1. Pallor. It is one of the consequences for the closing of the

blood glasses and of the decrease of the concentration of the

hemoglobin in blood.

2. Astenia: Weariness

3. Difficulty in breathing: sensation of that him lacking in air.

4. Muscular fatigue: also with small efforts.

5. Cardiocirculatory manifestations: tachycardia and moderate or

intense throbs.

6. Neurological disorders: alterations of the vision. Migraines

(headache). When there is a serious anemia signs can appear of

hipoxia cerebral, migraines, dizziness, and even a coma

7. Manifestations neuromusculares: changes of the conduct,

migraines, dizziness, visual disorders, insomnia, disability to

center.

8. Alterations in the menstruation: they give themselves abundant

rules (hipermenorrea) though it occurs

Treatment of the anemia

1. The level of oxygen increases that the blood, it

can be for the increase of red blood cells or the

concentration of hemoglobin, besides it is

necessary to treat also the reason or disease

that could have provoked the anemia.

2. Principally it will be enough with the

reinstatement of iron for oral route in cases of

iron deficiency anemia; or of vitamin B12 and

acid fólico in cases of anemia megaloblástica.

3. When there are important losses of blood a

transfusion of blood will be realized. And in more

extreme cases (as hereditary syndromes) one

can give the transplant of bony marrow.

4. In case of iron deficiency anemia it is necessary

to to follow a series of nourishing rules to

recover the normal levels of iron.

My opinion is that I think that it is a

disease that affects very much the

persons in his activities daily, though

these persons can have a treatment and

not to be a chronic disease, this disease

if it affects them very much for that

sympathetic his state of mind, there is

lack of energy, few concentration,

makes me happy that in certain I marry

it could anticipate with a good

nourishment and the disease can be

controlled in a natural way, since every

you see there are more persons with the

disease.
