Abstract

Ferrik karboksimaltoz (FCM) tedavisi uygulanan hastalarda hipofosfatemi gelişme sıklığını, şiddetini ve ilişkili klinik-laboratuvar faktörleri araştırmaktır. Kırklareli Eğitim ve Araştırma Hastanesi Dahiliye Polikliniklerinde 1 Ocak–31 Aralık 2025 tarihleri arasında FCM tedavisi alan 18 yaş üstü 140 hastanın verileri retrospektif olarak incelendi. Tedavi öncesi ve sonrası serum fosfat, kalsiyum, kreatinin, hemoglobin, ferritin, D vitamini ve PTH düzeyleri değerlendirildi. Hipofosfatemi gelişimini öngören bağımsız faktörler univaryat ve multivaryat lojistik regresyon analizleri ile belirlendi. Hastaların 122'si (%87,1) kadın olup yaş ortalaması 45,8 ± 16,9 yıldı. FCM tedavisi sonrasında 81 hastada (%57,9) hipofosfatemi gelişti. Multivaryat analizde bazal serum fosfat düzeyi hipofosfatemi için tek bağımsız prediktör olarak belirlendi (OR: 0,365; %95 GA: 0,179–0,741; p=0,005). ROC analizinde bazal fosfat için optimal eşik değer 3,20 mg/dL olarak saptandı (AUC: 0,664). Orta-ağır hipofosfatemi grubundaki hastaların %82,4'ünde miyalji, halsizlik ve kramp gibi kas semptomları gelişti. FCM tedavisi hastaların yarısından fazlasında hipofosfatemiye yol açmaktadır. Tedavi öncesi serum fosfat düzeyi düşük olan ve yüksek doz FCM alan hastalar semptomatik ve orta-ağır hipofosfatemi açısından daha yüksek risk taşımaktadır. Bu hastalarda rutin fosfat izlemi hasta güvenliği açısından kritik önem taşımaktadır.

Özet

This study aimed to investigate the frequency and severity of hypophosphatemia and the associated clinical and laboratory factors in patients receiving ferric carboxymaltose (FCM) treatment. Data from 140 patients aged over 18 years who received FCM treatment in the Internal Medicine Outpatient Clinics of Kırklareli Training and Research Hospital between January 1 and December 31, 2025, were retrospectively reviewed. Serum phosphate, calcium, creatinine, haemoglobin, ferritin, vitamin D, and parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels were evaluated before and after treatment. Independent factors predicting the development of hypophosphatemia were determined using univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses. Of the patients, 122 (87.1%) were female, and the mean age was 45.8 ± 16.9 years. Hypophosphatemia developed in 81 patients (57.9%) following FCM treatment. In the multivariate analysis, baseline serum phosphate level was identified as the only independent predictor of hypophosphatemia (OR: 0.365; 95% CI: 0.179–0.741; p=0.005). ROC analysis determined the optimal cut-off value for baseline phosphate as 3.20 mg/dL (AUC: 0.664). Muscle symptoms such as myalgia, fatigue, and cramps developed in 82.4% of patients in the moderate-to-severe hypophosphatemia group.FCM treatment leads to hypophosphatemia in more than half of patients. Patients with low pre-treatment serum phosphate levels and those receiving high-dose FCM are at higher risk for symptomatic and moderate-to-severe hypophosphatemia. Routine phosphate monitoring in these patients is of critical importance for patient safety.
