Iron Deficiency: Perioperative

In the fourth episode of the EHA Diagnosing And Treating Iron Deficiency podcast series, host Prof Gunnar Birgegård and guest expert Prof Antonio Almeda discuss the diagnostic and therapeutic management of iron deficiency and anemia in the perioperative setting, a clinical situation where having inadequate iron stores carries significant clinical consequences on mortality and morbidity outcomes. They also address the conclusions of different studies that have investigated the impact of repleting patients with iron on the incidence of complications, mortality, or long-term health. They also disclose how they are monitoring their patients’ iron levels following surgery and why it is important.
