Poor recognition and undertreatment of anemia in patients with chronic kidney disease managed in primary care

Anemia is a common complication of chronic kidney disease (CKD), but limited awareness and treatment options may hinder its management among CKD patients followed in primary care. We evaluated adults with CKD stages 3-5 attending primary care in Stockholm, Sweden, 2012-2018. We assessed the incidenc...

description Anemia is a common complication of chronic kidney disease (CKD), but limited awareness and treatment options may hinder its management among CKD patients followed in primary care. We evaluated adults with CKD stages 3-5 attending primary care in Stockholm, Sweden, 2012-2018. We assessed the incidence of anemia, clinical reactions, and association with subsequent major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) and death. We identified 45,637 patients with CKD stages 3-5 free from anemia (mean age 78 years; 64% females; 79% CKD stage 3b). During a median follow-up of 2.4 years, 26% of patients developed anemia, and 10.4% developed severe anemia (hemoglobin
