| Abstract: | A poster presentation regarding factors influencing haemoglobin levels in chronic medicine users. Introduction: Anaemia may be defined as a decrease in the number of red blood cells, haemoglobin, and haematocrit, below the reference ranges indicated for healthy individuals, of the same age, gender and race under similar environmental conditions. It is the most commonly encountered haematological abnormality. Aims: To investigate the effect of chronic medication use against influential factors on haemoglobin levels within the Maltese population. These factors included chronic administration of several drugs, symptoms experienced, dietary and lifestyle factors and haematological profile. |
