Abstract: Anemia, defined as a low haemoglobin (Hgb) level in the blood, is frequent in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and is an independent and specific predictor of in-hospital or long-term mortality in AMI patients. There is considerable evidence available addressing the significant consequences of anaemia in AMI patients. Nosocomial anaemia is caused mostly by a lack of immunity; patients grow weaker and more susceptible to nosocomial anaemia as a result of chronic renal disease.
