Postoperative High-Dose Intravenous Iron Sucrose with Low Dose Erythropoietin Therapy after Total Hip Replacement
Erythropoietin combined with parenteral iron sucrose therapy is an alternative to blood transfusion in anemic patients. It was shown to be effective in surgical patients in several previous studies when used in conjunction with other methods. However, there are no guidelines about safety limits in dosage amounts or intervals. In this study, we report a case of significant postoperative hemorrha...
متن کاملRegular low-dose intravenous iron therapy improves response to erythropoietin in haemodialysis patients.
BACKGROUND Erythropoietin (Epo) is an effective but expensive treatment for anaemia in patients with chronic renal failure. Hyporesponsiveness to Epo, particularly in haemodialysis patients, is most commonly due to a functional iron deficiency, which is difficult to monitor reliably. METHODS Forty-six stable haemodialysis patients, receiving Epo therapy, were commenced on regular low-dose int...
متن کاملIntravenous iron treatment in pregnancy: comparison of high-dose ferric carboxymaltose vs. iron sucrose.
OBJECTIVE Oral iron substitution has shown to be insufficient for treatment of severe iron deficiency anemia in pregnancy. Ferric carboxymaltose is a new intravenous (i.v.) iron formulation promising to be more effective and as safe as iron sucrose. We aimed to assess side effects and tolerance of ferric carboxymaltose compared to i.v. iron sucrose in pregnant women. METHODS We performed a re...

متن کاملSafety and Efficacy of High Dose Intravenous Iron Sucrose for Treating Anaemia in Pregnancy
Iron deficiency anaemia is the most common deficiency in women of child bearing age throughout the world and is even more common in pregnancy, as it might be expected from the increasing iron requirement. Approximately 95% cases of anaemia in pregnancy involve iron deficiency, which has deliterious effects and increases morbidity and mortality in mother as well as in the fetus. The aim of the s...
