ObjectiveTo analyze the clinical effect of sodium chlorophyllin in the treatment of geriatric oncology-related anemia and its significance.
MethodsWe retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of elderly cancer patients with similar treatment background between December 2011 and February 2013, and the patients were divided into sodium chlorophyllin treatment group and no special treatment group. Then, parallel comparative study was carried out for anemia-related indexes and scores of quality of life.
ResultsHemoglobin, red blood cells and quality of life of sodium chlorophyllin treatment group were improved after treatment, and these indexes were also better than those in the no special treatment group (P<0.05).
ConclusionSodium chlorophyllin can ameliorate anemia in elderly patients with oncology-related anemia, which is worthy of being popularized.
