About this study

This is a clinical trial to evaluate the effect of intravenous iron supplement with Ferinject (Ferric Carboxymaltose) in preventing postoperative delirium after hip fracture surgery.

Read the detailed description

We hypothesized that IV iron supplement will (1) decrease postoperative delirium in hip fracture patients and (2) decrease the amount of transfusion and transfusion-related complications.

What participants receive

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

  • FerinjectDrug

    Also called Ferric Carboxymaltose

    Intravenous ferinject 1000mg is administered between the admission day and the surgery day.

  • Normal salineDrug

    Normal saline 250ml is administered between the admission day and the surgery day.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Ferinject and Normal saline in people with Hip Fractures, run by Seoul National University Bundang Hospital at 1 site in South Korea.

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 7 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 23 Jun 2022. 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 South Korea. 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 Jung-Wee Park, M.D. (82-10-2255-7726, jwepark@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Postoperative delirium (time frame: since immediately after the surgery to the discharge date). 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 23 Jun 2022.
