Information from the abstract
Background: Iron-deficiency anemia is challenging to diagnose in patients with cyanotic congenital heart disease (CCHD) because of the high hemoglobin concentration as a compensatory mechanism for cyanosis. Purpose: This study aimed to identify predictive parameters of iron depletion status and assess the prevalence of iron deficiency in patients with CCHD. Methods: A descriptive study enrolled patients with CCHD aged 6 months to 15 years between September 2022 and September 2023. Participants were categorized into iron depletion and iron sufficiency groups defined by a serum ferritin level
