It is substantiated the new approaches for diagnosis and treatment of patients with chronic heart failure and iron deficiency anemia on the basis of defining clinical symptoms, exercise tolerance, iron metabolism indicators in these patients for detecting iron deficiency in time, diagnostic criteria of its severity and rating change of these indicators during three-month oral treatment by ferrous sulphate drug and determining predictors of worse hematologic response to oral iron therapy.
