Abstract
84 patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) NYHA II-IV FC with anemia were examined. Of these, 54 are men and 30 are women. All patients were diagnosed with anemia at a hemoglobin (Hb) level of less than 120 g/l in men and less than 110 g/l in women. The reason CHF was CHD (postinfarction cardiosclerosis) n=40, or CHD with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) n=10, with arterial hypertension (AH) n=14, or CHD +AH+DM n=10. Correction of the anemia syndrome in CHF with the use of MEB, effectively eliminates erythropoietin deficiency, anemia and cytokine aggression in patients with CHF with anemia.
