About this study

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of intravenous iron sucrose in patients with hip fracture and surgical intervention to prevent perioperative anemia.

Read the detailed description

The main objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of intravenous iron sucrose in patients with hip fracture and surgical intervention to prevent perioperative anemia.

It will also determine whether intravenous iron sucrose administration improve outcomes as Haemoglobin values, transfusional needs, postoperative complications, length of hospital stay and cost-effectiveness.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Iron sucroseDrug

    Iron sucrose FERIV® (20 mg/ml). Dilution: 10 ml in 100 ml SF 0.9%. 25 ml in 15 minutes and the rest in others 15 minutes.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Transfusional needs

    Blood transfusion rate in patients over 65 years undergone hip fracture and surgical intervention.

    Measured: 1st, 5th day and 1st and 6 th month after surgical intervention.

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Units of packed cells

    Packed cells average.

    Measured: 1st and 5th days, 1st and 6th month after surgical intervention.

  2. Postoperative complications

    Infections, adverse reactions.

    Measured: 1st and 5th day , 1st and 6th month after surgical intervention.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Iron sucrose in people with Hip Fracture and Surgical Intervention, run by Hospital Clinic of Barcelona at 1 site in Spain.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 11 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Mar 2010. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Spain. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Anna Cruceta, MD (932279838, acruceta@clinic.ub.es), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Transfusional needs (time frame: 1st, 5th day and 1st and 6 th month after surgical intervention.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 10 Mar 2010.
