Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

Anemia is one of the major global problems that continues to this day. According to World Health Organization (WHO) data, anemia is found in 1.62 billion people or equivalent to 24.8% of the world's population while, the prevalence of anemia in children under 6 years of age in Indonesia reached 38.4%. Anemia, if undiagnosed or untreated for a long period of time can lead to multiorgan failure. The cardiovascular system is the most commonly affected system in chronic anemia. Between one-third and two-thirds of patients with severe anemia have cardiomegaly and this will return to normal within a few weeks after the anemia is well managed. This abnormality can be evaluated on chest radiograph or echocardiography.
