Abstract(s)
A anemia adquirida em hospital (AAH) é uma consequência derivada da hospitalização que persiste ainda nos dias de hoje. Nos doentes com maior número de comorbilidades, não anémicos à admissão hospitalar, os níveis de hemoglobina podem diminuir devido a intervenções médicas e/ou terapêuticas abaixo do limite de diagnóstico de anemia. O risco de aquisição de anemia durante a hospitalização é tanto maior quanto mais prolongado for o período de internamento e depende da concentração de hemoglobina na admissão e
do número de comorbidades.
É fundamental perceber a etiologia da AAH, que é multifatorial, a fim de identificar os doentes de risco e implementar medidas que previnam a anemia nosocomial e transfusões sanguíneas nos doentes mais suscetíveis.
Hospital-acquired anaemia (HAA) is a consequence of hospitalization that persists to this day. In patients with a greater number of comorbidities, who are not anaemic on admission to the hospital, haemoglobin levels may decrease due to medical and/or therapeutic interventions below the diagnostic threshold for anaemia. The risk of acquiring anaemia during hospitalization is greater the longer the hospital stay and depends on the haemoglobin concentration on admission and the number of comorbidities. It is essential to understand the aetiology of AAH, which is multifactorial, to identify patients at risk and implement measures to prevent nosocomial anaemia and blood transfusions in the most susceptible patients.
