Anemias continue to present a challenge to the health care profession. Anemia is defined as a reduction in one or more of the RBC indices. Patients presenting with a mild form of anemia may be asymptomatic; however, in more serious cases the anemia can become life threatening.

Anemia and Aging or Anemia of Aging? [PDF]
represent 12% of the US population and by the year 2030 they are expected to represent 20% (1). The segment of the population increasing more rapidly than any other involves individuals over 85, the so called “oldest old.” The mean life expectancy of the population was around 60 years in 1900, is currently 80 for women and 76 for man and is expected to

Anemia of Chronic Disease (Anemia of Inflammation)
Acta Haematologica, 2009Mild-to-moderate anemia often develops in the setting of acute or chronic immune activation and is termed anemia of chronic disease (ACD) or anemia of inflammation. Anemia of chronic disease is the second most common type of anemia (after anemia of iron deficiency) and results in increased morbidity and mortality of the underlying disease.

The symptoms and severity of anemia depend on various factors, including the degree of anemia, the rapidity of its onset, and the age and physiologic status of the patient. Although the human body tries to counterbalance the effects of anemia by various mechanisms, almost every organ system of the human body is eventually affected.

Anemia is an enormous problem worldwide that is worse in the developing countries but by no means lacking in developed countries. Women and children are disproportionately affected. Nutritional anemias, mainly caused by a lack of iron and folate, are largely correctable by dietary improvement, but this socioeconomic change may not be readily achieved ...

Pediatrics In Review, 1988
The differential diagnosis of anemia is made easier by classifying RBC morphology as (1) hypochromic and microcytic, (2) normochromic and normocytic, and (3) macrocytic. This limits the number of diagnostic considerations and, hence, limits the laboratory evaluation.
