The Effect of Perioperative Iron Therapy in Acute Major Non-cardiac Surgery on Allogenic Blood Transfusion and Postoperative Haemoglobin Levels: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.
2019
Background
Perioperative anaemia in relation to surgery is associated with adverse clinical outcomes. In an elective surgical setting, it is possible to optimize patients prior to surgery, often by iron supplementation with correction of anaemia. Possibilities for optimization prior to and during acute surgical procedures are limited. This review investigates whether iron treatment initiated perioperatively improves outcomes in patients undergoing major acute non-cardiac surgery.
