Iv iron for older adults with heart failure and low iron
Treatments studied
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This trial tests whether giving iron through an IV can help older adults with heart failure who also have low iron levels. It aims to see if this treatment improves symptoms and quality of life.
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 study tests whether an oral iron supplement (a pill called sucrosomial iron) can help people with heart failure who have low iron feel better, have more energy, and walk farther. Participants will take the iron pill or a placebo (a pill without the active ingredient) for a period and will do exercise tests and answer questionnaires to see how they improve.
