Anemia: An Update
Anemia: An Update- Albert Brady, MD
Our understanding of deficiency states that can result in anemia is rapidly evolving. This is a lecture-based review of the recent advances in understanding and treatment of anemia with a focus on prenatal care. Discussion will be encouraged as some concepts are new and can be confusing. A review of common peripheral blood findings will be included and will be of value to those who need to sit for recertification.
