Filter by:Preoperative anaemia has been shown to be associated with worse outcomes after surgery in both adults and children. Limited research has been done on how common preoperative iron-deficiency anaemia (IDA) is in children and how best to treat it. Oral iron is a relatively cost-effective treatment for IDA. This study aims to show whether giving children with IDA oral iron for 6-12 weeks before their surgery significantly improves their haemoglobin.
This is a prospective, observational, non-inferior study in ESRF patients stable on Eprex who are switched to a Biosimilar Epoetin Alfa. Study plans to recrut 44 patients. Following recruitment, a baseline data collection of full routine laboratory test before switch to Binocrit.Primary endpoint is Mean change in haemoglobin levels at 12 weeks and Secondary endpoint is Mean change in haemoglobin levels at 6 weeks Safety endpoint will be Adverse drug reactions and serious adverse effects Analysis: Changes from baseline at Week 6 and Week 12 will be evaluated using paired t-test or Wilcoxon signed ranks test as appropriate. Changes in continuous variables over time were evaluated using repeated-measures analysis of variance. Patients with iron-deficiency (ferritin <100 ng/ml or transferrin saturation <20%) will be analysed separately
