ABSTRACT
Anemia of prematurity is seen in infants of less than 32 weeks' gestation. This anemia is due to low erythropoietin level and endogenous insufficiency of iron and vitamins. Administering of recombinant human erythropoietin, iron and vitamins in time is logic prevention alternative. The aim of our study is to examine the frequency of late haemotransfusions as an indicator of this prevention. We have investigated 181 children, who were born before the 32nd gestational week and who were distributed in two groups group A (with prevention) and group B (without prevention). We found no significant difference in the frequency of the late transfusions between the two groups, but the results of the prevention in the most mature infants were better than those of the infants who were born before the 30th gestational week.
