In 2021 anaemia was reported in at least 7% of all paediatric hospital admissions, the case fatality rate was 12%, and anaemia was a comorbidity in at least 17% of all child deaths. Anaemia increases the risks of infection, poor growth and development. In this session we will cover the common causes of anaemia in children, especially iron deficiency and nutritional anaemia. We will discuss how to assess the child with pallor, how to distinguish based on clinical features and an analysis of the FBC the different causes of anaemia. We will cover iron physiology, anaemia of malaria, anaemia due to haemolysis and anaemia due to bone marrow failure, and Thalassaemia. We will also discuss nutritional treatment of anaemia, safe use of iron, and indications for blood transfusion.
