Treatment of secondary hyperparathyroidism in hemodialysis patients: a comparison between two Italian centers to evaluate real-world guideline implementation
Our study found, in the two clinical settings of the study, a lower prevalence of patients with elevated or suppressed PTH levels compared to the Italian patients included in DOPPS. Despite different treatment strategies, the prevalence of elevated PTH levels was similar in the two Centers. This suggests that different therapeutic strategies may be equally effective in controlling secondary hyperparathyroidism.
