Journal Title: Indian Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology Research - Year 2017, Vol 4, Issue 1
Abstract
Objective: To compare the efficacy safety and cost effective of oral iron and injectable iron sucrose and FCM in pregnancy in 2nd and 3rd trimester. Methods: A prospective randomised control trial study in 300 women with HB 7-9gm% done in department of obstetrics on Gynae in Muzaffarnagar Medical College, Muzaffarnagar. Result: Mean changes in Hb: oral iron 9.14gm%, inj.iron sucrose 10.54gm%, inj FCM 11.66gm%. The value of p is < 0.00001. The result is significant at p ≤0.05. Mean changes in PCV: oral iron 25.1%, inj iron sucrose 36.7%, inj FCM 37.46%. The value of p is <0.00001. The result is significant at p ≤ 0.05.Mean changes in MCV: oral iron 74.5Fl. The value of p is 0.172115. The result is not significant at p ≤ 0.05., inj iron sucrose 72.52.4Fl, inj FCM 80.4Fl. The value of p is < 0.00001. The result is significant at p ≤ 0.05.Mean changes in MCHC: oral iron 32.9%, inj iron sucrose 37.6%, inj FCM39.31%. The value of p is < 0.00001. The result is significant at p ≤ 0.05 Mean changes in serum feritin oral iron 28.95 µg/l, inj iron sucrose 29.25 µg/l, inj FCM 47.3µg/l. The value of p is < 0.00001. The result is significant at p ≤ 0.05.Mean changes in serum iron oral iron 36.27µg/dL, inj iron sucrose 38.1 µg/dL, inj FCM 73.8 µg/dL. The value of p is < 0.00001. The result is significant at p ≤ 0.05. Mean decrease in TIBC: oral iron 369µg/dL, inj iron sucrose 330µg/dL, inj FCM 324 µg/dL. The value of p is < 0.00001. The result is significant at p ≤ 0.05. Regarding efficacy both oral iron and injectable group was statistically significant. The value of p is < 0.00001. The result is significant at p ≤ 0.05. Conclusion: We can conclude from this study that injection FCM is a promising alternative for IDA as its compliance is better than others, it can be safely used for correction of anaemia without any side effects over the mother and fetus.
