The prevalence of a higher rate of anaemia extends into the three months prior to revascularization surgery, it is associated with longer hospital stays and more transfusions in addition to being a factor in poor prognoses. Study and treatment of anaemia within the perioperative period could improve the surgical outcomes, including the recovery and the quality of patients' lives. There are several types of intravenous iron preparations with different administration protocols, but there is not a consensus on the timing and type of the appropriate iron therapy. To the best of our knowledge, there is no data on the performance of intravenous iron in the management of preoperative anaemia in patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD) in vascular surgery. Methods and analysis: The IRONPAD Study is a phase IV randomised controlled trial with two branches of treatment on the efficacy of intravenous iron therapy for the optimisation of blood use and prognosis in the perioperative period of patients with anaemia undergoing revascularisation for chronic lower limb ischemia. The study randomises 240 patients with anaemia to: treat with a single intravenous dose of ferric carboxymaltose (1000 mg) or no treatment vs oral iron supplements (if severe anaemia) a minimum of two days prior to lower limb revascularisation surgery. The primary outcome is to reduce the incidence of transfusion from randomisation up to 30+7 days after the main surgery. The secondary outcomes will be included to establish the optimal preoperative moment of increased intravenous iron administration, to raise haemoglobin levels; to study the evolution of haemoglobin from inclusion to 30+7 days after surgery; and to determine the impact of anaemia and its treatment on the length of hospital stay, morbidity and mortality, as well as the quality of life in this period.
Patients of relapsed and refractory warm autoimmune hemolytic anemia or EVANS syndrome aged 18 to 80 will be included in this study. The treatment regimen is a single dose anti-CD20 antibody (500mg) combined with bortezomib (1.3mg/m2 twice a week for two weeks). The treatment course would be repeated three months later.
Ferumoxytol injection (Feraheme®) is a parenteral form of iron supplementation that is FDA-approved for treatment of iron deficiency anemia. Ferumoxytol injection achieves iron repletion in fewer doses (2) when compared with other available injectable iron formulations (5-6) available at NYU Langone Health, and thus may be useful to reduce travel burden and expedite full iron repletion in patients with iron deficiency. Iron-deficiency anemia is common in patients after placement of a ventricular assist device (VAD) for treatment of end-stage heart disease. This is a pilot study to test the feasibility of iron repletion with ferumoxytol injection in 20 eligible subjects with laboratory evidence of iron deficiency after placement of a VAD.
Randomized controlled trial to evaluate the efficacy of oral iron supplementation in reducing the prevalence of preoperative anemia in a cohort of 82 patients undergoing elective prosthetic hip or knee surgery.
This study aimed to determine the effect of an integrated educational session on enhancing compliance behavior among pregnant women with iron deficiency anemia.The anemic pregnant women in the study group received an integrated health education in one session. While pregnant women who were allocated to the control group received the routine antenatal care and follow up.
The purpose of this study is to find out if roxadustat (also known as FG-4592) is safe and effective for the treatment of anemia in participants receiving chemotherapy treatment for cancer.
Critical patients which requiring admission to intensive care (IT) are a special group of patients. In these patients the prevalence of anemia reported in studies is 75%. This prevalence is similar to that in the retrospective observational study conducted in our intensive care unit(ICU). Of the 783 patients included in the study, 551 (73.37%) had anemia on admission. Frequently anemia is present on discharge from ICU or hospital and may persist for an average of 11 weeks. Some studies have reported the presence of anemia as far as 6 months after discharge. It is widely accepted that anemia has a negative impact on rehabilitation and quality of life, but the treatment can not be exclusively based on blood products due to the risks associated with transfusion. Alternative treatments such as injectable iron or erythropoietin should be considered. The Transfusion Management Initiative Group recently issued recommendations on perioperative anemia. Similar recommendations for ICU have not yet been developed in Romania. The current study has two main purposes. The first to adopt the perioperative anemia diagnostic algorithm and adapt it to anemic patients on ICU; the second to identify patients with mixed anemia (inflammatory and iron deficient anemia) who can benefit from treatment with iron.
This is an open-label Phase II clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy of a hematopoietic cell-based gene therapy for pediatric patients with Fanconi Anemia, subtype A (FA-A). Hematopoietic stem cells from mobilized peripheral blood of patients with FA-A will be transduced ex vivo (outside the body) with a lentiviral vector carrying the FANCA gene. After transduction, the corrected stem cells will be infused intravenously back to the patient with the goal of preventing bone marrow failure.
This is a randomized, open-label, multi-center study in dialysis chronic kidney disease (CKD) participants to evaluate the efficacy and relative safety of different dosing regimens of roxadustat over a 36-week treatment period. There are 3 study periods: - Screening Period (up to 4 weeks) - Treatment Period (36 weeks) Part 1: Correction/Conversion Period (Weeks 1-20) Part 2: Hemoglobin (Hb) Maintenance Period (Weeks 21-36) - Follow-up Period (4 weeks)
Women of reproductive age are a high-risk population for anaemia and micronutrient deficiencies. Evidence supports the role of periconceptional nutrition in the development of adverse pregnancy complications. However, in India, there are limited population-based data to guide evidence-based recommendations and priority setting. The objective of this study is to conduct a population-based biomarker survey of anaemia and vitamin B12 and folate status in women of reproductive age as part of a periconceptional surveillance program in Southern India.
