However, the diagnosis of iron deficiency anemia is usually made only when changes in the hemogram are detected, and the initial stages of iron deficiency in the form of sideropenic syndrome remain unrecognized, and the correction of iron deficiency is not administrated. Iron deficiency leads to decrease in immune protection and the development of frequent respiratory diseases, which are a trigger factor for the occurrence of exacerbations of respiratory allergic diseases (asthma, allergic rhinitis). The aim of our work is to identify early signs of iron deficiency in allergic children. This study included outpatient records and a survey of parents of 139 children with various allergic diseases (asthma, allergic rhinitis, atopic dermatitis). According to the results of the survey signs of sideropenic syndrome were detected in 76.2% of children. Frequent respiratory diseases were observed in 62.4% of children, who were characterized by prolonged subfebrility (up to 7-10 days), prolonged cough and runny nose. In most children, the level of hemoglobin was normal, but a decrease in the mean corpuscular volume of red blood cells was registered, which is a reliable sign of an iron deficiency. We can recommend to pay the attention of pediatricians to thorough collection of anamnesis and analysis of the hemogram in order to detect sideropenic syndrome and timely administrate of iron replacement therapy.</p>Iron deficiencychildrensideropenic syndrome.Железодефицитное состояниедетисидеропенический синдром.[1.
