Welcome to the Video Course on ‘Anemia’.
Anemia is a decrease in the total amount of red blood cells (RBCs) or hemoglobin in the blood, or a lowered ability of the blood to carry oxygen. Anemia is the most common blood disorder, affecting about a third of the global population.
The present video course, hence, been devised to discuss some of the common topics that are likely to be encountered by the medical graduate in their clinical practice and thus will help them understand the topics with more clarity. The course would also be useful for anyone interested in the field of Hematology.
This video course aims to train medical students acquire deeper understanding of the following topics: Hemoglobin, Disorders of Heme Synthesis, Iron Regulation,Approach to Anemia, Microcytic Anemia, Macrocytic Anemia, Normocytic Anemia, and Anemia diseases
