{"title":"Prevalence and associated factors of anemia among elderly patients at a tertiary hospital in Estern Ethiopia: a cross-sectional study","authors":"Niman Tayib, Gebeyaw Arega, Girum Tesfaye, Abdi Hasan, W. Adissu","doi":"10.15406/htij.2024.12.00320","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.15406/htij.2024.12.00320","url":null,"abstract":"Background: As anemia is a prevalent condition in geriatrics and old age and its frequency proportionately increases with age, leading to severe consequences; any magnitude of it is now recognized as a risk factor for any adverse outcomes: decreased quality-of-life, hospitalization, morbidity, and mortality. Despite its clinical importance, the problem is not widely recognized. Therefore, regular surveillance could provide evidence-based local data required for interventions. This study is aimed to assess the prevalence and associated factors of anemia among elderly patients in eastern Ethiopia. Methods: From June 20 to July 30, 2022, a cross-sectional study centered in an institution was carried out, enrolling 381 elderly patients. Direct interviewing and review of medical records were used to gather socio-demographic and clinical data. Each participant provided a venous blood sample to determine total blood cell count and blood peripheral film examination; to identify hemoparasites and the morphological type of anemia. Using SPSS version 25, descriptive statistical analysis and bivariate and multivariate logistic regressions were used, and statistical significance was set at p<0.05. Result: Anemia was seen in 40.4% of participants, mild, moderate, and severe anemia accounts for 71.1%, 23.1%, and 5.8%, respectively. Normocytic normochromic anemia was seen in 55.13% of cases, and microcytic hypochromic in 37.18%. The anemia was substantially correlated with being male [AOR=0.352 95% CI: 0.174, 0.708], having a lower socioeconomic status [AOR=0.041 95% CI: 0.011, 0.156], and eating meat less than once per week [AOR=0.301 95% CI: 0.114, 0.793]. Conclusion and recommendation: The prevalence of anemia among elderly patients in this area was found to be a severe public health problem. Mild anemia was the predominant type. Identified risk factors should be considered to prevent and control anemia, and screening for anemia among the elderly should be a part of their routine management.","PeriodicalId":103294,"journal":{"name":"Hematology &amp; Transfusion International Journal","volume":"7 12","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139452635","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Materials and methods: The results of 52 pharmacokinetic studies involving 34 patients with oncological diseases, whose treatment was complicated by venous thrombosis, were analyzed. The median age of patients was 14.5 (7–18) years. Depending on the daily dose and the type of heparin administered, the results of pharmacokinetic studies were divided into 6 groups. Dalteparin sodium: against the background of chemo-induced thrombocytopenia, subcutaneous administration of dalteparin at a dose of 51.0 (40.0–72.0) anti-Xa IU/kg every 12 hours – 6 observations; subcutaneous injection every 12 hours at a dose of 100.5 (91.0–141.0) anti-Xa IU/kg – 18 observations; long-term continuous intravenous infusion at a constant rate at a daily dose of 201.0 (180.0–265.0) anti-Xa IU/kg - 6 observations. Nadroparin calcium: 62.0 (53.0-71.0) anti-Xa IU/kg every 12 hours - 6 observations; 93.5 (80.0–117.0) anti-Xa IU/kg every 12 hours – 10 observations; subcutaneous injection at a dose of 203.0 (170.0–236.0) anti-Xa IU/kg once a day - 6 observations. Results: We confirmed that in the acute period of thrombosis in children, the most optimal way to administer low molecular weight heparin is intravenous infusion of dalteparin sodium at a constant rate. Subcutaneous injection of 50% of the daily dose of LMWH at intervals of 12 hours is preferable to a single injection of 100% of the daily dose every 24 hours. There were no significant advantages of nadroparin compared with dalteparin when using anticoagulants in comparable doses in case of venous thrombosis, which complicated the treatment of children with malignant neoplasms. Conclusion: Control over the adequacy of the dose of LMWH can be performed at any stage of treatment. The specific anti-Xa activity of nadroparin and dalteparin needs to be checked before the next subcutaneous injection and between 3 and 4 hours after administration. An increase in chronometric indicators of blood coagulation indirectly reflects the presence of an anticoagulant in the blood, but does not allow an objective assessment of the achievement of a therapeutic effect.","PeriodicalId":103294,"journal":{"name":"Hematology &amp; Transfusion International Journal","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130793585","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
