Abstract
Often found anemia or "anemia" in heart patients, and often it determines a heart failure Have demonstrated the results of 16 studies conducted in the past that anemia was a major cause of heart failure or death in the first thirty days for patients with heart attack. It was found in these studies that a slight change occurs in the percentage of hemoglobin is the cause of infarction or severe privations of blood to the heart muscle Objective To evaluate the ECG changes in patients with Aplastic Anemia Method A descriptive study was conducted at Baghdad Teaching Hospital during the period from 15th October 2010 to15th May 2011 .A random sample consisted of (50) patient suffering from Aplastic Anemia who were selected one by one from those admitted to the Hamatology Ward . 12 leads ECG and Hemoglobine concentration was carried out on these patients Results: The results of the study show that (32%) of patients with Aplastic Anemia with ECG changes and (30%) of them with acute reduction of hemoglobin concentration to 6 gdl with ST- segment depression and the same percentage with T inverted 1mm Conclusion: This study indicated that patients with aplastic anemia with ECG (ST segment) changes had higher heart rate than those without ECG changes at the same concentration of Hemoglobin Level (6 gdl) Recommendation: Carrying out further research on larger samples and longer period to evaluate the ECG changes in patients with Aplastic Anemia and after discharge
