Objective To analyze the clinical significance of blood tests in diagnosing and differentiating iron deficiency anemia (IDA) and thalassemia (THAL). Methods 160 anemic patients admitted to our hospital were selected as the research subjects, including 80 IDA patients in the IDA group, 80 THAL patients in the THAL group, and 80 healthy individuals who underwent physical examinations during the same period as the control group. Compare the blood test indicators of three groups and the diagnostic efficacy of blood tests IDA and THAL. Results Compared with the conventional group, the blood test indicators of IDA group and THAL group were significantly lower (P<0.05); Compared to the THAL group, the blood test indicators in the IDA group were significantly lower (P<0.05); There was no significant difference in the diagnostic accuracy, specificity, and sensitivity between THAL and IDA (P>0.05). Conclusion Blood tests have important clinical significance in the diagnosis and differentiation of IDA and THAL, and can provide strong evidence for clinical treatment and prevention.
