Evaluation of serum electrolyte levels in iron deficiency anemia patients.

Abstract: Objectives: To evaluate electrolytes levels in patients suffering from iron deficiency anemia and to compare it with patients without anemia. Study Design: Descriptive Cross Sectional study. Setting: Department of Pathology, Sahiwal Medical College Sahiwal. Period: November, 2019 to May, 2020. Material & Methods: After taking informed consent, five milliliter of blood was drawn from each patient. Blood sample was analyzed for electrolytes, complete blood counts and serum ferritin levels. Results were compa… Show more

“…One-third of the global population is suffering from anemia disease, which affects more than two billion people worldwide with mortality around 800,000 per year [16]. Some studies have shown that anemia is an imbalance in the serum electrolyte levels, which is the alteration in red cell membrane-bound sodium-potassium adenosine triphosphatase pump activity that governs intra-and extracellular cation homeostasis [17]. Most of the earlier studies are based on meta-analysis or multivariate analysis that may not be able to identify the effects of SNa on the heart, diabetes, and anemia patients [18,19].…”

“…In contrast to patients without anemia, people with anemia had lower salt and potassium levels, according to Mansoor F et al 2021 [5] . Increased Na + /K + ATPase activity in anaemic patients compensates for the normal function of this enzyme in the cell and its method for adaptation to patients with low oxygen levels [6,7] . Changes in membrane-bound enzymes have a direct impact on the levels of Na + and K + in the serum.…”
