Prof Paul Kalra (Portsmouth Hospitals NHS Trust, UK) joins us onsite to discuss the IRONMAN trial (NCT02642562).The IRONMAN trial aimed to study the effectiveness of intravenous iron in patients with heart failure and iron deficiency when compared to standard care. It showed that administration of IV FDI led to lower rates of recurrent heart failure hospitalisations and cardiovascular death. In this interview, Prof Kalra provides insight into some substudies of the trial, providing updates on rates of anaemia, iron deficiency and the quality-of-life of the patients enrolled in the trial. Results show increasing data on the safety profile of intravenous iron, and improved quality-of-life in patients.
