Treatment targeting pediatric inflammatory bowel disease-associated anemia: experience from a single tertiary center

Ana S.C. Fernandes, Sara Azevedo, Ana Rita Martins, Ana Isabel Lopes

Question: Does treating iron deficiency (ID) using intravenous iron in pediatric inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) feature long-term safety and efficacy?
Finding: Intravenous iron supplementation was safe and effective. However, the ID recurrence rate was higher than expected.
Meaning: Proactive screening and treatment of ID in pediatric IBD are essential. The Ganzoni formula likely underestimates the iron requirements of pediatric patients. Prospective trials are needed to optimize iron treatment dosing.
