To determine the frequency of iron deficiency anaemia in non-dialysis chronic kidney disease patients.
The observational, cross-sectional study was conducted at the Department of Nephrology, The Kidney Centre Post-Graduate Training Institute, Karachi, from April 27 to October 26, 2018, and comprised adult patients of either gender diagnosed with anaemia and estimated glomerular filtration rate <90ml/min. Patient with transferrin saturation <20% were labelled as having iron deficiency anaemia. Data was analysed using SPSS 21.
Of the 366 participants, 185(50.5%) were males and 181(49.5%) were females. The overall mean age was 54.47±14.93 years. The most prevalent comorbid was hypertension 263(71.9%), followed by diabetes mellitus 187(51.1%) and cardiovascular disease 54(14.8%). Besides, 192(52.5%) patients had CKD stage 5 followed by 115(31.4%) and 54(14.8%) with CKD stages 4 and 3, respectively. The mean haemoglobin was 9.17±1.57g/dL. Iron deficiency was found in 285(77.9%) patients.
Iron deficiency anaemia was found to be highly prevalent and should be screened routinely and managed appropriately.
确定非透析慢性肾脏病患者缺铁性贫血的发生率。
本观察性、横断面研究于 2018 年 4 月 27 日至 10 月 26 日在卡拉奇肾脏中心研究生培训学院肾脏病科进行,纳入经诊断患有贫血和估计肾小球滤过率<90ml/min 的成年患者。转铁蛋白饱和度<20%的患者被标记为患有缺铁性贫血。使用 SPSS 21 对数据进行分析。
在 366 名参与者中,185 名(50.5%)为男性,181 名(49.5%)为女性。总体平均年龄为 54.47±14.93 岁。最常见的合并症是高血压 263 例(71.9%),其次是糖尿病 187 例(51.1%)和心血管疾病 54 例(14.8%)。此外,192 例(52.5%)患者为 CKD 5 期,115 例(31.4%)和 54 例(14.8%)分别为 CKD 4 期和 3 期。平均血红蛋白为 9.17±1.57g/dL。发现 285 例(77.9%)患者存在缺铁。
缺铁性贫血的发生率很高,应常规筛查并进行适当治疗。
