Summary

This observational study aims to compare long-acting darbepoetin alpha versus short-acting epoetin alpha erythropoietin-stimulating agents in Egyptian hemodialysis patients. The main questions aim to answer are:

* What are the effectiveness and safety of long- acting versus short-acting erythropoietin-stimulating agents in Egyptian hemodialysis patients?
* What is the cost-effectiveness of long- acting versus short-acting erythropoietin-stimulating agents in Egyptian hemodialysis patients?

Participants will be divided into 2 groups; epoetin alfa (short-acting ESA), Eprex group, and darbepoetin alfa (long-acting ESA), Aranesp group for six month study period.
