Overview

Natural History

If left untreated, anemia of chronic disease usually manifests as congestive heart failure, angina, arrhythmia, myocardial infarction and high-output heart failure.The anemia will improve when the disease that is causing it is successfully treated.

Complications

Potentially life-threatening complications

Decreased oxygen delivery[1]

Hypovolemia

  • A correlation has been observed between severe anemia and increased bleeding risk

Prognosis

The anemia will improve when the disease that is causing it is successfully treated.
