Erythropoietin (EPO) is a glycoprotein hormone that regulates the production of red blood cells (erythrocytes). The hormone is produced naturally in the kidneys and can also be prescribed as medicine to treat certain diseases that cause anemia, for example in polycythemia vera or chronic kidney failure.

An analysis of erythropoietin (EPO) can be carried out if a problem related to red blood cell production is suspected, such as anemia or polycythemia. It may be particularly relevant to distinguish between different causes of these conditions, for example if the anemia is due to chronic kidney disease or if an increased amount of red blood cells is due to primary polycythemia (polycythemia vera) or a secondary cause, which may be oxygen deficiency due to lung disease or prolonged stay at high altitude. This blood test can help determine the cause of these conditions and is crucial in designing an effective treatment strategy.

Analysis in case of suspicion of polycythemia vera

To investigate polycythemia vera (PCV), analysis of erythropoietin (S-EPO) is recommended according to national guidelines, especially in the presence of elevated hemoglobin values;

HB above >170 g/L for men

HB above >160 g/L for women

The kidneys are vital organs that filter the blood, regulate fluid balance, and remove waste products through urine. They play a central role in blood pressure regulation, electrolyte balance, and the production of hormones that affect blood formation and calcium metabolism. Renal markers are analyzed to assess kidney function and detect early signs of kidney disease. They can provide important information about filtration capacity, fluid balance, and any effects on the kidneys.

Erythropoietin (EPO) is a hormone secreted by the kidneys to regulate the production of red blood cells. Analysis is carried out in the diagnosis of blood-related diseases such as anemia and polycythemia and to treat anemia linked to chronic diseases.
