Background: Anaemia occurs in the early stages of kidney disease and worsens as kidney function deteriorates. Typical consequences of pneumonia are impaired erythropoietin production, iron and vitamin deficiency, blood loss, shortened erythrocyte life, chronic inflammation, and a uremic environment. Aim: To identify morphological classification of different types of anemia present in hemodialysis patients with chronic kidney diseases. Patients and methods: After obtaining informed consent, 4 mL of blood was collected from the vein of each participant for a Complete Blood Count (CBC) and peripheral film report. The CBC was performed using a haematology analyser. All these patients were previously diagnosed with chronic kidney failure and were on haemodialysis with an average duration of 4 years.
