Abstract

Anemia is invariably detected by a reliable hemoglobin determination. Recognition of the general mechanism (increased red cell loss or destruction or decreased red cell or hemoglobin production) is the first step in diagnosis. Then the particular cause may be defined directly or by exclusion. Special diagnostic studies may be necessary, and a systematic conception of the causes will enable application of appropriate tests and, subsequently, intelligent management.
