Abstract

Iron deficiency anemia is one of the common health problems during childhood. This study was carried out to determine theprevalence of iron deficiency anemia in school children and to evaluate the results of hemoglobin, RDW and ferritin levels fordiagnosis of iron deficiency anemia. Children between 7-11 years of age living in Manisa were selected for this study. Studentsgoing to 1st-5th classes of primary school during 2004-2005 were selected as study population. 848 children (437 boys and 411girls) were selected randomly. Formal permission was taken from The Ministry of Education, school managers and all families. Aquestionnaire related with sociodemographic properties was applied, anthropometric measurements were done and schoolperformance of children was evaluated by their teacher. Blood for hemogram, ferritin serum iron and iron binding capacity wasobtained from all children by pediatric nurses with the supervision of a pediatrician. Serum samples were studied at Celal BayarUniversity. Iron deficiency anemia was diagnosed if hemoglobin (Hb) was lower than -2 SD according to sex and age (for this agegroup Hb

Özet

emir eksikliği anemisi (DEA), çocukluk çağının en sık karşılaşılan sağlık sorunlarından biridir. Manisa il merkezinde ilköğretimçocuklarında demir eksikliği anemisi prevalansını saptamak ve tarama testi olarak hemoglobin, RDW ve ferritin’indeğerlendirilmesi amaçlandı. Çalışmaya Manisa il merkezinde 2004-2005 öğretim yılında ilköğretim okullarının 1.-5. sınıflarınadevam eden 7-11 yaş arasındaki öğrenciler alındı. Çalışmada 437’si erkek, 411’i kız olmak üzere toplam 848 öğrenci rasgeleörneklem yöntemiyle seçildi. Tüm çocuklara sosyodemografik özellikleri ile ilgili anket uygulandı ve hemogram, ferritin, serum demirve demir bağlama kapasiteleri çalışıldı. Toplam 848 çocuktan 12 sinde demir eksikliği anemisi saptandı ve prevalans %1.4 olarakhesaplandı. Anemi olmaksızın sadece demir eksikliği (DE) ise 199 (%24.7) çocukta tespit edildi. Sadece hematolojik parametrelerin(Hb, RDW) değerlendirilmesi ile demir eksikliği anemisi tanısı konulmasında sensitivite %91.7, spesifisite %98.0 olarak belirlenirken,pozitif prediktif değeri %40.7 ve negatif prediktif değeri %99.9 idi. Sadece RDW yüksekliği ile değerlendirilme yapıldığında ise buoranlar daha düşük bulundu. Demir eksikliği anemisi saptamada tarama testi olarak sadece hemoglobin ve RDW’nin yeterliolmadığı, serum ferritin düzeyi ile birlikte değerlendirilmesi gerektiği sonucuna varıldı.D
