William Aird: A Physiological Approach to Anemia

William Aird, Professor of Medicine at Harvard Medical School, shared a post on X:

“Aproach to anemia

Most anemia algorithms start with the MCV.

That’s a mistake.

The first branch point is the reticulocyte count.

It asks a physiological question: Is the marrow responding?

MCV describes appearance.

Reticulocytes reveal function.”
