| Original Abstract | Jehovah’s Witnesses is a Christian denomination widely recognized for their steadfast refusal of blood transfusions, even when facing severe anemia. We describe a unique case of a 42-year-old Jehovah’s Witness woman with severe iron deficiency anemia. She necessitated surgical correction of a malpositioned gastric band within the context of a complex necrotizing aspiration pneumonia secondary to esophageal obstruction. Medical management of this severe anemia has been a challenge as traditional approaches, like a blood transfusion, are not possible. Instead, a multifaceted approach has been described with intravenous iron infusions, recombinant human erythropoietin, vitamin B 12 , folate, and vitamin C administration. We emphasize the lack of consensus on guideline protocols regarding management of severe anemia for Jehovah’s Witness patients and the subsequent need for more investigation into that matter. It also underscores the significance of respecting patient autonomy through close collaboration between patients and their health care providers to ensure effective patient-centered care |
