Abstract: There are not many similar studies discussing the management of anemia in primary setting by family physicians. Therefore, we conducted this review to assess the strategies and programs targeting the patients suffering anemia from any type, and the patient’s management procedures that are available in primary care setting. Comprehensive review was conducted using electronic medical databases such as; Medline, PubMed, Embase, Search strategies were targeting all studies discussing Anemia in primary care, (Management, diagnosis, causes, and prevalence) published up to June, 2017. More than 100 conditions may cause anemia, yet 90% belong to three groups: nutritional shortages (iron, vitamin B12 and also folic acid), ACD (chronic swelling, lumps), as well as blood loss (leaving out chronic bleeding, which creates iron deficiency). Hemolytic anemia, although much less regular than the various other, is the last choice before considering the medical diagnosis of unusual illness. A couple of laboratory examinations, such as blood count, ESR, product ferritin, and product iron and also transferrin, are sufficient to focus the medical diagnosis. Management of iron deficiency anemia in family practice would be performed under based evidence guidelines, that could help family physicians to improve the quality of treatment provided to those patients with anemia.
Keywords: Proper Management of Anemia, Iron Deficiency Anemia, ACD (chronic swelling lumps).
