It refers to anemia caused by insufficient production of erythropoietin (EPO) in the kidney or by some toxic substances in uremic plasma interfering with the production and metabolism of red blood cells.

Toxin accumulation in the body, affecting the normal hematopoietic process. Iron, folic acid, vitamin B12 and other hematopoietic raw materials deficiency. Inflammatory reaction, aluminum poisoning and other factors may also participate in renal anemia. 2.

Use erythropoietin to correct anemia. Control primary diseases, such as nephritis, diabetic nephropathy, etc. Diet adjustment, increase the intake of nutrients rich in iron, protein, etc. Other treatments, such as blood transfusion, hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, etc. 5. Prevention: Regular physical examination, early detection and treatment of CKD. Control blood pressure, blood sugar and other indicators to reduce kidney damage. Avoid the use of nephrotoxic drugs. Reasonable diet to ensure balanced nutrition. Renal anemia has a great impact on the health and quality of life of patients, early diagnosis and treatment is crucial.
