This study looks at whether giving iron supplements to patients who have anemia and inflammation during a hospital stay can help improve their iron levels and overall health. It aims to see if this treatment is safe and effective for people in this situation.
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 study tests whether giving iron through a vein can improve quality of life in older adults who recently had a heart attack or unstable angina and also have low iron levels. If you qualify, you would receive either iron or a placebo (inactive substance) to see if iron helps you feel better and recover faster.
This study tests whether giving an iron infusion after heart surgery can prevent long-term anemia (low blood counts). It aims to help patients recover better and avoid needing blood transfusions later.
