Abstract
Objectives

To determine the frequency, severity, time of onset and factors associated with the development of hypophosphatemia (HF) in patients with iron deficiency anemia treated with intravenous ferric carboxymatose (ivFCM).

Material and methods

Retrospective cohort study in patients iron deficiency anemia who received ivFCM and had an a prior and subsequent determination of serum phosphate. We carried out a comparative analysis between baseline and post-ivFCM levels of serum phosphate. In order to identify variables independently associated with HF a logistic regression analysis was also performed.

Results

One hundred twenty-five patients were included. HF frequency was 58%. The median time to onset of HF was 18days. Age, baseline ferritin levels and baseline phosphate levels were independently associated with the development of HF. The risk of HF in patients with baseline phosphate levels ≤3.1mg/dl was 67% higher than patients with ≥3.7mg/dl.

Conclusions

ivFCM-associated HF is a frequent, early and, sometimes, prolonged effect in patients with iron deficiency anemia. Serum phosphate levels should be monitored after ivFCM administration, especially in older patients and in those with lower baseline phosphate or ferritin levels.

Resumen
Objetivos

Determinar la frecuencia, gravedad, momento de aparición y variables asociadas al desarrollo de hipofosfatemia (HF) en pacientes con anemia ferropénica tratados con hierro carboximaltosa por vía intravenosa (HCMiv).

Material y método

Estudio de cohortes retrospectivo en pacientes que contaran con determinaciones de fosfato previa (normal) y posterior a la administración de HCMiv. Se compara la concentración de fosfato basal y posterior a la administración de HCMiv, y mediante regresión logística binaria se determinan las variables asociadas con la HF.

Resultados

Se incluyeron 125 pacientes. La frecuencia de HF fue del 58%. El tiempo medio hasta la aparición de HF fue de 18d. La edad, las concentraciones basales de ferritina y de fosfato se relacionaron con el desarrollo de HF. El riesgo de HF de los pacientes con fosfato basal ≤3,1mg/dl fue un 67% mayor que en pacientes con fosfato basal ≥3,7mg/dl.

Conclusiones

La HF asociada a HCMiv en pacientes con anemia ferropénica es un efecto frecuente, precoz y en ocasiones prolongado. En pacientes mayores, con fosfato y ferritina más bajas, se debe vigilar el fosfato tras la administración de HCMiv.
