Overview
Iron deficiency anemia can lead to significant load on heart as it causes a state of hyperdynamic circulation in the body. Echocardiographic findings of heart failure may be present.
Echocardiography or Ultrasound
- On echocardiography, these findings may be seen[1]:
- Increased thickness of left ventricular wall.
- Increased volume of left ventricular cavity.
- Systolic dysfunction and diastolic dysfunction in some cases.
- Ultrasound findings:
- Splenomegaly in some cases.
