Anemia: Information, Detection & Management

Anemia is the most serious complication of iron deficiency and a significant cause of death. More than half of the pregnant women in developing countries suffer from anemia. The accurate estimation of hemoglobin levels is an essential pre-requisite in a variety of other health issues, such as trauma care, selection of blood donors, epidemiological studies, and general primary health care. The measurement of hemoglobin in blood as an indicator of anemia has traditionally relied on the services of a well-equipped clinical laboratory. In primary health care centers, when laboratory facilities are not available, anemia is usually diagnosed from clinical signs (pallor of the conjunctiva, tongue, palms and nail beds, using anemia recognition cards if available), although accurate interpretation of these signs depends a great deal on effective training. However, in rural areas where anemia is common, an alternative method is needed to screen for anemia easily and economically.
