Filter by:Iron deficiency anaemia (IDA) is common in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). However, although iron is commonly prescribed, the amount of elemental iron needed to achieve clinical efficacy, and the optimal method of supplementation, are under debate. This pilot study aims to investigate the efficacy and safety of low dose and standard dose oral iron preparations for the treatment of IDA in patients with IBD.
Iron deficiency anemia (IDA) is a widespread condition affecting many people globally. Despite the many cases of IDA, there are few studies that compare the effectiveness of different types of iron supplements with a greater emphasis on the cost of supplements and their tolerability. This study aims to conduct a comparison between different iron supplements to determine the superiority of the iron supplements Ferrous Ascorbate (EBMfer) and Ferrous Fumarate (Eurofer) over polysaccharide iron (FeraMax). This comparison will be conducted by determining the change in hemoglobin levels for participants in this trial over a 3-month period.
POAM is a multicenter, randomized, controlled, internal pilot trial, using a conventional, parallel group, two-armed design at 3 cardiac surgery centres in Canada. The study is designed to assess the feasibility of a future, definitive RCT investigating whether, in patients with chronic iron-deficiency anemia undergoing cardiac surgery, IV iron therapy in the postoperative period (initiated shortly after surgery, and repeated at 42 days after surgery, if needed) improves clinical outcomes (days alive and out of hospital at 90 days after surgery; DAOH-90) relative to placebo.
This is a double blind, randomised, placebo-controlled trial to evaluate orally-dosed Iron Hydroxide Adipate Tartrate (IHAT) at 2 different dose levels compared to placebo for increasing serum ferritin levels in iron deficient, but otherwise healthy premenopausal women over 12 weeks.
This study aimed to reveal the effects of prophylactic iron preparations, adequate breast milk intake, and iron-rich supplementary food intake in the prevention of IDA (iron deficiency anemia) and ID (iron deficiency) in infancy.
Insomnia or sleep disturbance is a common disorder in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), but is often unrecognized and undertreated. It is known that sleep disorders may indirectly cause a variety of diseases and affect quality of life. The most common sleep disorders that occur in CKD are insomnia, excessive daytime sleepiness, obstructive or central sleep apnea (SA), and sleep disorders. This study evaluates the effectiveness and safety of Sideral® Sucrosomial Iron and iron chewable tablets 100mg commonly used in health insurance on sleep disorders in patients with CKD and iron deficiency anemia.
The prevalence of iron deficiency in pediatric cardiac surgery patients is not very well known. Iron deficiency can lead to anemia, higher transfusion rates and possibly higher complication rates. In this retrospective study, the iron status of all patients undergoing pediatric cardiac surgery at our institution between January 2019 and december 2023 will be analyzed. Together with iron status, transfusion requirements as well as complications will be recorded. Iron status will be reported with descriptive statistics, patients with or without iron deficiency will be compared using non-parametric tests.
The aim of this prospective, observational cohort study is to assess the impact of iron deficiency anaemia on the incidence of perioperative complications and the quality of recovery after surgery in patients undergoing colorectal cancer surgery. The main questions the study aims to answer are: - whether the presence of preoperative iron deficiency anaemia leads to a poorer quality of postoperative recovery in patients undergoing colorectal cancer surgery - whether different combinations of complete blood count parameters (red blood cell indices) could be suitable diagnostic tools for the detection of iron deficiency in the latent stage (without laboratory-confirmed anaemia) in colorectal cancer patients. Blood samples for laboratory analyses will be collected from each study patient admitted to the surgical ward one day prior to elective surgery and on the first postoperative day during the stay in the intensive care unit. The pre-operative laboratory analyses include a complete blood count and serum iron status parameters (iron concentration, ferritin concentration, TIBC, UIBC and TSAT). Laboratory parameters analysed on the first postoperative day include complete blood count, serum concentration of electrolytes (Na, K, Ca, Cl, Mg), serum concentration of urea and creatinine, parameters of haemostasis (aPTT, PT, INR), serum concentration of C-reactive protein and procalcitonin. Data about overall morbidity, intraoperative complications, quality of postoperative recovery, red blood cell transfusion rate, all-cause infection rate, antibiotic usage, as well as length of hospital stay will be collected. The researchers will compare the group of patients with iron deficiency anaemia, the group of patients with iron deficiency in the latent stage and the control group to determine whether patients with iron deficiency have a higher incidence of perioperative complications and impaired recovery after surgery. The researchers will investigate whether iron deficiency can be detected at an early stage, when anaemia is not yet present, by calculating various red blood cell indices.
The goal of this study is to investigate the effect of oral sucrosomial iron on exercise capacity and quality of life in patients with heart failure (HF) and iron deficiency (ID). The main question the study aims to answer is whether oral sucrosomial iron improved exercise capacity, assessed by six-minute walk test, and quality of life, assessed by Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire, compared with placebo. One group of participants will receive treatment with oral sucrosomial iron and the other group will receive treatment with placebo.
Study Procedures: All patients will undergo the following: Informed consent will be obtained from all the participants in this study before enrolling in this study and all participants will be subjected to a detailed clinical assessment including: a detailed history, general, abdominal examinations, Investigations. 1. History taking: - Personal history: name, age, occupation and address. - Menstrual and obstetric history: Date of LMP, expected date of delivery which will be calculated according to Naegle's rule and gestational age. In addition to history of presence of any menstrual irregularities, duration. - Past History: of Anemia in previous pregnancy, other diseases like Thalassemia, sickle cell anemia, liver or renal diseases or any other condition that may affect hemoglobin. 2. Medical examination: - General: Assessment of complexion and vital data (blood pressure, pulse, capillary refill) - Abdominal examination to assess fundal height. 3. Investigations to perform will include: Laboratory: Complete blood count (microcytic hypochromic anemia) Imaging: Ultrasound to assess biometry to exclude fetal growth restriction. Women will be divided in two groups with 20 in each group, the first group will receive one tab of ferrous gluconate 300mg administered orally twice per day for 4 weeks and the second group will receive lactoferrin sachets 100mg with ferrous gluconate 300mg twice per day for 4 weeks Patients were assigned to take the medication orally; once daily before breakfast, and Pravotin (100 sachets were be dissolved each in ¼ glass of water and taken before breakfast). Patients were advised to avoid the intake of tea, coffee, milk, milk products, antacids and calcium preparation within 2 hours before or after iron capsules. Women will be told to record side effects as nausea, vomiting, abdominal discomfort and constipation. Women will have a blood sample (CBC) withdrawn after 2 to 4 weeks to assess rise in pregnant anemia.
