Iron requirements in hemodialysis.
The correction of anemia in dialysis patients with erythropoietin (EPO) can be frustrated by insufficient iron. To address this effect, we preloaded candidate EPO patients with intravenous iron in the early 1990s. Preloading with 900-1,525 mg of iron yielded the following results: 70% of patients had increasing hematocrits (HCTs) without EPO, and 40% of patients had HCTs greater than 30%. Appar...
متن کاملHigh dose of bolus iron vs. low dose of weekly infusion: bolusing high dose, a recipe for iron toxicity?
Sir, We read with interest the article by Kosch et al. w1x comparing the i.v. infusion of iron sucrose with iron gluconate in patients on haemodialysis. Although this study provides some direct comparative analysis between two forms of parenteral iron compounds, the implication that iron sucrose being a monthly bolus dose might be better than the more frequently, Nephrol Dial Transplant (2002) ...
متن کاملHigh-Flux Hemodialysis Benefits Hemodialysis Patients by Reducing Serum FGF-23 Levels and Reducing Vascular Calcification
BACKGROUND High- and low-flux hemodialysis (HFHD and LFHD, respectively) are dialysis procedures designed to eliminate blood toxins that accumulate in end-stage renal disease. HFHD may reduce vascular calcification by removing serum fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF-23). However, whether HFHD is better than LFHD is still under debate. We therefore compared the efficacy of HFHD and LFHD in contro...
متن کاملTargets for adapting intravenous iron dose in hemodialysis: a proof of concept study
BACKGROUND Intravenous iron is widely used to control anemia in dialysis patients and limits costs related to erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESA). Current guidelines do not clearly set upper limits for serum ferritin (SF) and transferrin saturation (TSAT). International surveys such as the Dialysis Outcomes and Practice Patterns Study (DOPPS) showed that this lack of upper limits potentiall...
