Overview

Anemia
Anemia is a condition in which the body does not have enough healthy red blood cells or hemoglobin to carry adequate oxygen to tissues. This can result in fatigue, weakness, dizziness, pale skin, shortness of breath, and reduced physical performance. Anemia may be temporary or chronic and can range from mild to severe depending on the underlying cause.
Sepsis
Sepsis is a life-threatening response to infection causing organ dysfunction.
