title: Anaemia: causes and treatment.
abstract: Anaemia is a common pathological condition and it is important that all nurses are aware of its signs and symptoms. It can be detected by screening and, in most instances, readily and cheaply treated. Identifying the underlying cause of the anaemia is vital, as this will ensure that the patient receives appropriate treatment, which can have a significant impact on quality of life.
