Aim: To investigate the profile of anaemia in a hospital that provides specialized medical services. Material and Methods: The study was an observational prospective investigation carried out within the Department of General Medicine. A comprehensive medical history was obtained from all 100 patients, followed by a thorough general physical examination and systemic examination. The patients underwent standard blood tests, which included a complete blood count, examination of a blood sample under a microscope, and testing for viral markers using serology. Results: Pallor was noted in all patients. Platonychia/koilonychia suggesting iron deficiency anaemia was seen in 29(29%) of patients, whereas knuckle pigmentation suggestive of megaloblastic anaemia was observed in 20(20%) of patients. Moderate anaemia was seen in 15% of patients. Whereas severe anaemia showed 85 (85%) highest occurrence. Conclusion: It can be inferred that the World Health Organization and governmental entities have implemented comprehensive measures aimed at educating and providing medical care to individuals affected by the disease.
