2023 AHA CME Symposium - Translating Clinical Trials to Clinical Practice: Improving HF Outcomes with Intravenous Iron

HAZLET, N.J. - Oct. 18, 2023 - PRLog -- In this program, experts in iron deficiency in HF will explain the pathophysiology of iron deficiency in HF, specifically the role of hepcidin in hyperinflammatory states (such as HF) and subsequent implications on iron supplementation approaches. The prognosis of comorbid iron deficiency and HF will be described, and appropriate, timely patient screening and diagnostic testing of serum ferritin and transferrin saturation (TSAT) will be emphasized based on expert-generated algorithms. A multidisciplinary panel will appraise recently released clinical data of IV iron therapies for iron deficiency in HF and translate the information into "real-world" clinical practice.
