Effect of haematocrit on echocardiographic indices of cardiac dimension in sickle cell anaemia

Effect of haematocrit on echocardiographic indices of cardiac dimension in sickle cell anaemia

Background: Several mechanisms have been put forward to explain myocardial dysfunction in sickle cell anaemia. Aims and objectives: This study was aimed at examining the effect of haematocrit parameters on echocardiographic indices of cardiac dimension in adult sickle cell anaemia patients. Methods:...
