Evaluation of iron stores in hemodialysis patients on maintenance ferric Carboxymaltose dosing

Abstract Background Iron is administered intravenously (IV) to many dialysis patients at regular intervals and iron stores are evaluated through periodic measurements of ferritin and transferrin saturation (TSAT). In patients without kidney diseases, large single doses of IV iron lead to a transient...
