Improving blood management for patients undergoing heart surgery

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This observational study aims to collect data on patients scheduled for elective cardiac surgery to optimize hemoglobin levels and reduce the need for blood transfusions. A team of hematologists, along with cardiac anesthetists and surgeons, will evaluate patients' blood tests and address iron deficiency prior to surgery. The study builds on previous findings that intravenous iron supplementation can decrease post-operative transfusions and hospital stays. By correcting iron deficiency at least two weeks before surgery, the study seeks to enhance patient recovery and clinical outcomes.
