Summary

This study tests whether giving iron through a vein (IV) after heart surgery helps people with iron-deficiency anemia recover better. About 60 adults having planned open-heart surgery will receive either IV iron or a placebo. The goal is to see if this treatment is practical and improves how many days patients spend alive and out of the hospital within 90 days after surgery.
