Patient with transferrin saturation &lt;20% were labelled as having iron deficiency anaemia. Data was analysed using SPSS 21.\nResults: Of the 366 participants, 185(50.5%) were males and 181(49.5%) were females. The overall mean age was 54.47\u00b114.93 years. The most prevalent comorbid was hypertension 263(71.9%), followed by diabetes mellitus 187(51.1%) and cardiovascular disease 54(14.8%). Besides, 192(52.5%) patients had CKD stage 5 followed by 115(31.4%) and 54(14.8%) with CKD stages 4 and 3, respectively. The mean haemoglobin was 9.17\u00b11.57g\/dL. Iron deficiency was found in 285(77.9%) patients.\nConclusion: Iron deficiency anaemia was found to be highly prevalent and should be screened routinely and managed appropriately.\nKey Words: Iron deficiency, Anaemia, Chronic kidney disease.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.47391\/jpma.4507","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,2,16]],"date-time":"2022-02-16T08:18:52Z","timestamp":1644999532000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Frequency of iron deficiency anaemia in chronic kidney disease patients not on dialysis"],"prefix":"10.47391","author":[{"given":"Faryal","family":"Kamil","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Murtaza","family":"Dhrolia","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Aamna","family":"Hamid","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ruqaya","family":"Qureshi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kiran","family":"Nasir","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Aasim","family":"Ahmad","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"26547","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,2,16]]},"container-title":["Journal of the Pakistan Medical Association"],"original-title":[],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2022,2,16]],"date-time":"2022-02-16T08:18:53Z","timestamp":1644999533000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/ojs.jpma.org.pk\/index.php\/public_html\/article\/view\/4507"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2022,2,16]]},"references-count":0,"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.47391\/jpma.4507","relation":{},"ISSN":["0030-9982"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0030-9982","type":"print"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2022,2,16]]}}}
