MODERN APPROACHES TO THE TREATMENT OF IRON DEFICIENCY ANEMIA IN ADOLESCENT GIRLS
Journal Title: International scientific journal Science and Innovation - Year 2024, Vol 3, Issue 10
Abstract
Diagnosis and correction of iron deficiency conditions remain a pressing issue in practical pediatrics. The article presents data on the prevalence and characteristics of clinical manifestations, diagnosis and treatment of iron deficiency in adolescents. The special significance of diet and the importance of choosing the right iron-containing drug for correcting iron deficiency in adolescents are noted. Iron deficiency states (iron deficiency anemia (IDA) and latent iron deficiency (LID)), according to the World Health Organization (WHO, 2003), rank first among the 38 most common human diseases. It is known that IDA and LID affect more than 3 billion people on Earth. Studies conducted in different countries of the world show differences in the prevalence of iron deficiency states depending on the age, gender, and socioeconomic conditions of the country. Children, especially those in their first two years of life, teenage girls, and women of reproductive age are at risk for developing iron deficiency. Adolescents should be singled out among the risk groups, since they have several reasons for an increased risk of developing iron deficiency states. Firstly, insufficient iron intake with food: an unbalanced diet lacking sufficient meat products (vegetarianism), weight-loss diets, etc. Secondly, adolescents have increased iron requirements due to accelerated growth rates (puberty growth spurt). Thirdly, this age group is characterized by various diseases accompanied by increased iron losses – helminthic and parasitic infestations, erosive and ulcerative diseases of the stomach and duodenum, frequent nosebleeds, injuries, surgeries, heavy menstruation, etc. Iron deficiency, both obvious and hidden, has negative consequences for the child’s health. Iron is a part of not only heme, but also of many enzyme systems of the body (enzymes of systemic and cellular aerobic metabolism, oxidation-reduction homeostasis). A decrease in the amount of iron in the body (in tissue depots, blood serum, bone marrow) leads to a disruption in the formation of hemoglobin and the development of hypochromic anemia, as well as the occurrence of trophic disorders in various tissues.
