Popis: | Assessment of treatment response is needed in the management of iron deficiency anemia (IDA). This study aims to analyze erythrocyte indices (MCH, MCV, MCHC) and Ret-He as indicators of IDA diagnosis and treatment response. A prospective cohort study in children ages 2-18 years old in orphanages throughout Makassar. Grouped into normal group and therapy group, consisting of IDA and iron deficiency groups. Elemental iron therapy 3mg/kg/day was given. Levels of MCV (fl), MCH (pg), MCHC (g/dL), and Ret-He (pg) were measured before and on the 8th day of therapy. The normality test of numerical variable data used the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test. The statistical test used the Mann-Whitney test, Wilcoxon Signed Rank test, and the Kruskal-Wallis test. Diagnostic value and cut-off determination using ROC curve analysis. Test results were significant if p |
