Anemia in the frail, elderly patient.

Anemia and frailty are two common findings in geriatric patients and have been shown to be associated with poor outcomes in this patient group.

These findings do not only give a better insight into the pathogenesis of anemia in frailty, but also offer new treatment options. The present article focuses on this assumed association between anemia, frailty, and inflammaging and summarizes current management options for anemia in frail patients.
