Iron infusion after TAVI for older adults
Part of Heart & circulation, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This trial tests whether giving iron infusions after a TAVI procedure can help patients with iron deficiency feel better and improve their quality of life. It is for older adults who have low iron levels and have already had a successful valve replacement.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study compares two different doses of IV iron (low vs high) to see which works better for people with heart failure and low iron levels. It may help you feel less tired and breathe easier.
This trial tests whether giving iron through a vein after heart surgery helps treat postoperative anemia (low red blood cells) in people age 70 and older. It may improve recovery by correcting low iron levels after surgery.
This trial tests whether giving IV ferric carboxymaltose can lower the risk of death and heart complications after a recent heart attack, and improve quality of life. It is for adults with low iron levels and specific heart/health risk factors identified soon after their heart attack.
This study tests whether intravenous iron can improve outcomes for people with non-ischemic heart failure and low ejection fraction who are also iron deficient. If you fit the criteria, you may receive iron infusions to see if it helps your heart function and symptoms.
This trial tests whether giving iron through a vein (IV) plus a common heart-failure medicine improves heart function and iron levels in people with heart failure and low iron. You may receive the combination or just the standard medicine, and the study will use MRI and blood tests to check your heart and iron.
