Abstrakt: Background and Objective: Studies on the prevalence of anaemia in chronic kidney disease in adults not on dialysis (CKD-ND) and in dialysis programmes (CKD-D) in Spain are not recent or focus on certain subgroups. The aim of this study was to know the epidemiology and current treatment patterns of anaemia associated with CKD in Spain.
Materials and Methods: Multicentre, non-interventional, retrospective study with CKD-ND stage 3a-5 and CKD-D patients treated in Spain between 2015 and 2017 (RIKAS study).
Results: The prevalence of anaemia in CKD-ND and CKD-D in 2015 was 33.8% and 91.5%, respectively, with similar results during 2016-2017. The prevalence of systemic inflammation in anaemic patients (18.1% and 51.8% for CKD-ND and CKD-D, respectively) was higher, especially in those treated with erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESA), compared to the general population with CKD-ND. After 12 months of follow-up, mean ferritin and transferrin saturation index (TSI) values in anaemic patients with CKD-ND were 187.1 ng/mL and 22.2%, respectively, while in CKD-D were 254.6 ng/mL and 20.2%. In ESA-treated patients, mean values were 190.6 ng/mL and 22.0% in ND-CKD, and 255.0 ng/mL and 20.2% in D-CKD.
Conclusions: The prevalence of anaemia and inflammation increased with the disease severity, being higher in D-CKD. Iron parameters in anaemic patients treated or not with ESA are insufficient according to the guidelines, so there is room for improvement in the treatment of anaemia associated with CKD.
