Multicenter Study
Prevalence and management of anaemia in patients with non-myeloid cancer undergoing systemic therapy: a Spanish survey.
The present study aimed to provide updated data on anaemia prevalence and management in cancer patients undergoing systemic therapy in Spain. ⋯ In Spanish hospitals, about half of patients with non-myeloid malignancies undergoing systemic therapy fulfilled anaemia criteria (87 % mild). Approximately two-third of patients with anaemia do not receive specific treatment and ESA use is below current guidelines.
