Table 3 Adverse events presented throughout the cohort period from the extended study poputaion, expresed as absolute values. Total number of each iron preparation are the total doses of iron given to all patients (n = 1257) in all dialysis units during the time period
From: Conversion of haemodialysis patients from iron sucrose to iron isomaltoside: a real-world experience

|---|---|---|---|---|
Iron sucrose | 14,685 | 7 | 0 | 0.48 |
