[Clinical and epidemiological analysis of prevalence and the reasons of the development of anemia in patients with chronic heart failure].
The authors conducted retrospective analysis of medical records related to 1000 patients aged more than 45 years old and with chronic heart failure (CHF). These medical histories were selected by a method of stratified randomization. These patients had been diagnosed with verified CHF of I-III stages and II functional class (FC) and above according NYHA classification. It resulted because of ischemic heart disease (IHD). It is established, that anemia is diagnosed in 27.6% of patients with CHF of coronary genesis. Greater expressiveness of clinical signs of heart insufficiency with frequent detection of III and IV FC of HCF and systolic dysfunction of left ventricule (20% against 12%) is typical for these patients. In patients with CHF and anemia prevails normochromal anemia (61.6%), less often--hypochromic anemia (16.7%) and hyperchromic anemia (13%), that testifies about its various genesis in patients with this syndrome.
