CardioSideral Heart Surgery: Randomized Study on Sucrosomial Iron Supplementation Before Heart Surgery (CHS)

July 9, 2020 updated by: Luca Weltert, Cardiochirurgia E.H.

CardioSideral Heart Surgery: Randomized Study on Sucrosomial Iron Supplementation

This randomized, single blind (Outcomes Assessor), non-profit study is aimed at verifying whether routine preoperative supplementation with Sucrosomial® Iron in patients scheduled for cardiac surgery may increase baseline haemoglobin, constrain the haemoglobin decrease between postoperative day 2 and 3 (haemoglobin drift), and reduce the postoperative transfusion requirements, in order to identify a new strategy for pre-hospitalization optimization and post-operative recovery.

Detailed Description

This randomized, single blind (Outcomes Assessor), non-profit study is aimed at verifying whether routine preoperative supplementation with Sucrosomial® Iron in patients scheduled for cardiac surgery may increase baseline haemoglobin, constrain the haemoglobin decrease between postoperative day 2 and 3 (haemoglobin drift), and reduce the postoperative transfusion requirements, in order to identify a new strategy for pre-hospitalization optimization and post-operative recovery.

Secondary Objectives are

  • Changes in blood chemistry and biochemical tests between pre- and post-intervention
  • Evaluation of tolerability and compliance of supplementation with Sucrosomal Iron
  • Reduction in the number of transfusions and blood bags used
  • Evaluation of cost-effectiveness
