[Pregnancy anemias].

After introductory remarks on the physiology of blood during pregnancy the authors enter the two most frequent anaemias of pregnancy, which are evoked by iron deficiency and infection, as well as the megaloblastic, which are evoked by deficiency of folic acid--more infrequently also by deficiency of vitamin B12. The diagnostic and therapeutic principles are described in detail. It is only in short referred to the very rare haemolytic and toxic farms of anaemia, it is generally renounced to describe the haemorrhagic anaemia. A prophylaxis of the anaemia of pregnancy is intensely recommended.
