  • Title: [Rational diagnosis of anemias].
    Author: Wehinger H.
    Journal: Monatsschr Kinderheilkd; 1988 Dec; 136(12):779-83. PubMed ID: 3070361.
    Abstract:
    An algorithmic approach to the diagnosis of anemias is presented. It starts with history, physical examination, and a basic laboratory program including erythrocyte morphology. On the basis of the reticulocyte count and MCH-value anemias are divided into hypo- and hyperregenerative as well as micro-, normo-, or macrocytic forms. Within these groups it is easy to diagnose common anemias by only a few laboratory tests. Rare forms of anemia will be recognized as such and diagnosed by special investigations.
