This trial tests if a newer type of iron pill (sucrosomial iron) works as well as intravenous (IV) iron to raise low red blood cell levels before heart surgery. If you have mild anemia from low iron, this study may help improve your blood count before your procedure.
This study looks at long-term results of giving iron before major heart surgery to people with low iron levels. It aims to see if this treatment helps recovery and outcomes.
This trial tests a single dose of intravenous iron given after heart surgery to see if it helps prevent or reduce long-term anemia. It is for adults who already have low iron or anemia before surgery and who remain anemic the day after surgery.
This trial is testing whether giving iron plus vitamin C before heart surgery can reduce the need for blood transfusions. It is for people with low iron and anemia who are scheduled for bypass or valve surgery.
This trial compares two types of iron supplements (Sucrosomial Iron and Ferric Maltol) to see which works better and causes fewer side effects in women with low iron levels. It may help if you have mild to moderate anemia and are not taking other iron supplements.
This trial tests whether giving iron (iron sucrose) can reduce anemia during chemotherapy before curative surgery. It may help you feel better and have smoother treatment by improving low blood counts caused by iron deficiency.
