The effect of perioperative intravenously administered iron isomaltoside 1000 (Monofer®) on transfusion requirements for patients undergoing complex valvular heart surgery: study protocol for a randomized controlled trial.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Anemia is a frequent complication after cardiac surgery especially following reoperation due to previous prosthetic valve failure or multiple valve surgery (including combined coronary artery bypass grafting). This trial explores whether intravenously administered iron isomaltoside 1000 (Monofer®) results in better clinical outcomes in patients undergoing complex heart valve surgery who are expected to receive transfusion. METHODS/DESIGN:In this prospective, single-center, double-blinded, randomized controlled trial, 214 patients undergoing reoperation or multiple valve surgery are randomly allocated to either the iron isomaltoside 1000 (IVFe) or the control group from August 2016 to August 2018. The IVFe group receives iron isomaltoside 1000 mg (maximum dose 20 mg/kg) intravenously 3 days before and after the surgery. The control group receives an equivalent volume of normal saline. The primary endpoint is transfusion requirement (more than 1 unit of packed erythrocytes) for postoperative care until discharge and secondary endpoint are major complications, such as delayed ventilator therapy, acute kidney injury, and mortality. Reticulocyte count, plasma hepcidin, iron profiles (serum iron, serum ferritin, total iron-binding capacity, transferrin, transferrin saturation), coagulation profiles, urinary analysis, and chemical profiles are measured for three preoperative baseline-data days and just before surgery, except for hepcidin. After surgery, daily routine basic laboratory tests are measured just before discharge and reticulocyte count, iron profiles, and hepcidin are repeatedly checked for three postoperative days. DISCUSSIONS:From our study, we can clarify the following points: the first is the perioperative IVFe effect on the demand for transfusion, and clinical outcomes in reoperation or complex valve surgery and the second is the role of hepcidin in the effect of IVFe on the hemoglobin level increase. TRIAL REGISTRATION:ClinicalTrials.gov , Identifier: NCT02862665 . Registered on August 2016.

Project description:BACKGROUND:The need for a transfusion is one of the adverse events following total knee arthroplasty (TKA), and accurately predicting this need remains challenging for arthroplasty surgeons. The purpose of the present research is to study the preoperative predictors of transfusion risk in patients following TKA and develop a nomogram. METHODS:The nomogram was developed based on a training set of 5402 patients who underwent TKA at the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University between September 2013 and November 2018. The independent predictors of transfusion were identified by univariate, LASSO, and binary logistic regression analyses. Then, a nomogram was established based on these independent predictors. The area under the curve (AUC), calibration curve, and decision curve analysis (DCA) were selected to evaluate the nomogram. The results were validated using an independent set of 1116 patients who underwent TKA between December 2018 and September 2019. In addition, we also carried out subgroup analyses in the training and testing sets based on the independent predictors. RESULTS:Five independent predictors were identified by multivariate analysis and were used to establish the nomogram. The AUCs of the nomogram were 0.884 (95% CI: 0.865-0.903) and 0.839 (95% CI, 0.773-0.905) in the training and testing sets, respectively. In both the training and testing sets, the calibration curve indicated that the prediction by the nomogram was highly consistent with the actual observation, and the DCA indicated that the nomogram had a favorable level of clinical usefulness. In addition, the AUC of the nomogram was significantly higher than the AUC of any independent predictor for predicting transfusion risk following TKA, and the subgroup analysis showed good performance in 20 subgroups. CONCLUSION:Lower preoperative Hb levels, simultaneous bilateral TKA, lower BMI, older age, and coronary heart disease were identified as independent predictors of postoperative transfusion in patients following TKA. A nomogram incorporating the above five predictors could accurately predict the transfusion risk.
