Filter by:Patients with IDA and for whom fast replenishment of iron stores is necessary, e.g. if its not appropriated to postpone surgery, will be identified within 28 to 42 days before surgery. Patients will be randomised to receive either Polyglucoferron intravenously (i.v.), Ferric Carboxymaltose i.v. or oral iron substitution with Ferrous sulfate.
The purpose of this trial is to compare the safety profile using equal doses of intravenous iron dextran versus iron sucrose. The researchers hypothesize that significantly more patients receiving intravenous iron dextran (using the current intermediate molecular weight product) will have severe adverse outcomes than patients receiving iron sucrose in the adult non-hemodialysis outpatient population. Secondly, since these severe reactions may require additional nursing time and physician interventions that may negate any cost advantage of iron dextran, the researchers hypothesize that iron sucrose will be more cost-effective than iron dextran.
The primary purpose of the study is to demonstrate the superiority of Bledilait milk (Biofer® 2mg/100kcal) in comparison with ferrous sulphate supplemented milk (2 mg/100 kcal) in infants (6 to 12 months) with latent iron deficiency by measuring serum ferritin value after 2 months of consumption of studied milks.
