ABSTRACT
Anemia is defined as a hemoglobin concentration below 11.0 mg/dL, this condition in which the number of red blood cells or their ability to transport oxygen into the blood is insufficient, which may vary with age, sex, altitude and others circumstances. In Mexico, iron deficiency anemia remains a health problem and is the most common founded in children and women at childbearing age. In our study 229 patients were included and studied by blood cytometry, hemoglobin levels, mean globular volume and mean corpuscular hemoglobin were evaluated, to classify anemias and perform a statistical study to determine the frequency of iron deficiency anemia. Our institution, Hospital Infantil de México «Federico Gómez» (HIMFG), a third level hospital, mainly attend patients overgoing chronic diseases, hemato-oncological, autoimmune, chronic liver diseases, and so other illness, that’s why iron deficiency anemia isn’t frequent among our patients.
