Practice Guideline Series Anemia is a common finding in cancer patients, most often as a result of chemotherapy. Management of anemia requires a comprehensive approach of appropriate diagnosis, exclusion of reversible causes, use of erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (esas), and iron supplementation.

Anemia is a common finding in cancer patients, most often as a result of chemotherapy. Management of anemia requires a comprehensive approach of appropriate diagnosis, exclusion of reversible causes, use of erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (esas), and iron supplementation. Recently, consensus guidelines on the management of chemotherapy-induced anemia were published in Europe and the United States. The present review is intended to be a practical guide for Canadian physicians, based on published guidelines, but specifically tailored to the Canadian environment. |
