Iron Deficiency in Heart Failure Treatment by abdellahsaid017 is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Iron deficiency, with or without anemia, is a significant comorbidity in heart failure (HF) patients, affecting up to 50% of this population and leading to decreased physical and cognitive performance. It is an independent risk factor for unfavorable outcomes such as death or heart transplant, and treatment has been shown to improve exercise capacity and quality of life. Despite its prevalence, iron deficiency is often underdiagnosed, necessitating better monitoring and management in HF patients.
