Study on Hemoglobin Concentration in Patient with Chronic Kidney Disease

In the present study hemoglobin concentration were estimated in chronic kidney diseased patient to observe the frequency of low hemoglobin level in chronic kidney diseased (CKD) patient and to assess the incidence of anaemia. This cross sectional study was carried out in the department of Physiology of Mymensingh Medical College, Mymensingh, Bangladesh from July 2014 to June 2015. For this purpose, total 200 subjects with age ranged from 25 to 60 years were selected and divided into100 healthy persons as control group and 100 CKD patients as study group. Both control and study group were further divided into 50 male and 50 female. Hemoglobin concentration was evaluated by the Cyanmethemoglobin (CMG) method. Statistical analysis of data was done by unpaired student's 't' test. The results showed that hemoglobin levels decreased significantly in chronic kidney diseased patients than the normal healthy persons. The decreasing frequency of hemoglobin level in CKD may predispose the patients to anemia and increasing the other complications.
