Overview

Cross-sectional study assesses serum ferritin and transfusion frequency in beta-thalassemia patients, indicating iron overload management.

Key Points

  • Serum ferritin concentration averages 2376.72 ng/mL in beta-thalassemia major patients, highlighting significant iron overload.
  • Regular monitoring of serum ferritin and transfusions is crucial for managing complications in transfusion-dependent beta-thalassemia patients.
  • The study involved 100 beta-thalassemia major patients aged 2 to 19 years, with a mean transfusion frequency of 92.92.
  • Routine monitoring of iron levels could improve quality of life despite the challenges of managing iron overload.
