| Core Tip |
Iron deficiency anemia (IDA) is under-diagnosed and under treated in hospitalized gastrointestinal (GI) bleeders. Less than a third of our patients had evaluation of their anemia to detect IDA. Around half of these investigated patients had lab proven IDA. Less than two thirds of those patients with proven IDA received iron supplementation, which means that IDA was either under-recognized or disregarded on purpose. In an attempt to understand the reasoning of physicians leading to this discrepancy, we analyzed predictors of checking iron studies on these hospitalized GI bleeders and the main predictors were lower mean corpuscular volume and early documentation of anemia in the chart. |
