Abstract

Background: Regarding the relatively high prevalence of IRON DEFICIENCY ANEMIA and paradoxical reports of maternal anemia effects on neonatal indices of anemia, this study has been conducted on patients referring to Booali hospital during the academic year 1998-99, to determine the relationship between maternal anemia and neonatal indices of anemia. Materials and methods: This cohort study was performed on 15 newborns of anemic mothers and another 15 newborns of normal mothers. Anemic mothers were those with HGB<11 g/dl and SERUM FERRITIN <15 m/l. Both groups were matched according to the age, number of children, using iron supplement, disease during pregnancy, gestational age, and neonatal weight (>2500). Then SERUM IRON, SERUM FERRITIN and HGB level were measured and the correlation between maternal and neonatal indices was determined. Results: HGB level was 10.5±0.38 gr/dl and 13.1±1.17 gr/dl in the case and control group, respectively. It was 15.9 gl/dl in neonates. No significant difference has reported between HGB, SERUM IRON and ferritin of neonates. Meanwhile, no relationship has detected between HGB and ferritin level of mothers and neonates. Conclusion: Maternal anemia has no effect on neonatal anemia indices. The same study on mothers not receiving iron supplement is strongly recommended.
