Gambaran Kadar Feritin Pada Pasien Penyakit Ginjal Kronik Stadium 5 Non Dialisis

Abstract

: Ferritin is a major iron storage protein in human tissues. It functions as an iron storage especially in liver, spleen, and bone marrow. Anemia occurs in 80-90% chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients; the most common type of anemia is normocytic anemia. WHO assumes that in Indonesia chronic kidney disease patients will increase 41.4% in 1995-2025. This study aimed to obtaind ferritin level in non dialysis end-stage renal disease patients. This was a descriptive study with a cross sectional design. Data of ferritin levels in non dialysis end-stage renal disease patients were obtained from two hospitals, Prof. Dr. R. D. Kandou Hospital Manado and Advent Hospital Manado, from December 2015 to January 2016. Blood samples of 35 patients suffering from non dialysis end-stage renal disease were obtained by using non-probability consecutive sampling method. The results showed that of the 35 patients, there were 28 patients with increased ferritin levels and 7 patients with normal ferritin level. Conclusion: Increased ferritin level occurred among non dialysis end-stage renal disease patients
