AB  - Anemia  is  a  significant  maternal  problem  during  pregnancy.  The  Centers  for  Disease  Control  and  Prevention  defines  anemia  as  a  hemoglobin  concentration  of  <11  g/dL  (hematocrit  of  <33%)  in  the  first  or  third  trimester  or  a  hemoglobin  concentration  of  <10.5  g/dL  (hematocrit  <32%)  in  the  second  trimester.  A  pregnant  woman  will  lose  blood  during  delivery  and  the  puerperium,  and  an  anemic  woman  is  at  increased  jeopardy  of  blood  transfusion  and  its  related  complications.
