    (Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2022-11-22) Arroyo Medina, Cecilia Paulina; Bohórquez Medina, Andrea Lisbet
    The objective of this research is to develop a critical review of articles, clinical studies and scientific literature, using the Evidence-Based Nutrition (Cloud) methodology, concerning the effectiveness of Iron Supplementation in pediatric patients. The same ones that contribute to answering the clinical question asked: Is clinical intervention with iron supplements effective in pediatric patients? A systematic search for articles was carried out in a precise and non-repetitive manner using Pubmed/MEDLINE, Embase, WOS, and Scopus as databases. Finding 25 articles, 25 being selected, which have been evaluated by the CASPE critical reading tool, finally selecting the Systematic Review entitled “Effectiveness of iron polymaltose complex in treatment and prevention of iron deficiency anemia in children”, which has a level of evidence I and Grade of Strong Recommendation, according to the researcher's expertise, the critical comment allowed us to conclude that the results did not allow a clear conclusion. There was moderate to high certainty evidence that ferrous sulphate is superior to polymaltose iron complex, with clinically significant evidence in improving hemoglobin and ferritin levels in the treatment of iron deficiency anemia in children.
