Abstract


 Diabetes  is  a  chronic  disease  that  occurs  either  when  there  is  insufficient  insulin  production  or  when  the  body  cannot  effectively  use  the  insulin  it  produces.  Anemia  is another  point  of  concern  affecting  the  world’s  population,  which  represents  decrease  in

 red  cell  mass  or  hemoglobin  contents  of  blood. This  study  is  to  assess  Diabetes  and Anemia  in  patients  admitted  in  rural  hospital  of  Wardha  District  and  to  find  the  factors  associated  with Diabetes  and  Anemia  in  patients.  A  cross  sectional  study  was  done  in  rural  hospital  of Wardha  using  a  predesigned  questionnaire  for  assessment  of  diabetes  and  anemia  in  the admitted  patients. Majority  of  patient  diagnosed  with anemia  and  diabetes  were diagnosed  recently  and  were  on  medications  for  same.
