Abstract: Objective To investigate the role of correcting anemia in improving the heart function of chronic heart failure(CHF) with anemia. Methods Sixty-six CHF patients with anemia were randomly assigned to two groups. Thirty cases in the control group received routine treatment including digitalis, diuretics, vasodilator,ACEI or β-blocker,and 36 cases in the observe group received the above routine treatment and EPO,chalybeate and transferring hematid. Results Clinical efficiency ratio and total efficiency ratio were higher in the observe group (63. 9% ,91.7%) than in the control group(33.3% ,56. 7%) (χ2 =6. 73 and 10.91 ,P ＜0.01). After treatment for 3 months,Hb concentration, LVEF, LVDD, LEDV and LESV in the observe group were (125.0 ± 4. 0) g/L,(49.6±8.0)%,(4.9 ±0.7) cm,(130.1 ±24.0) ml and (72.5 ±32.0) ml respectively,which were all significantly improved than those in the control group [(80.0 ± 7.0) g/L, (34. 7 ± 10.0) %, (6. 0 ± 0.4) cm,(148. 3 ± 30.8) ml and (79. 7 ± 25. 0) ml] (P ＜ 0.01). Conclusions Correcting anemia is a safe and effective method in improveing the heart functionin CHF patients with anemia.
