The IRONMAN trial of intravenous iron for heart failure. Adjudication of hospitalizations and deaths.

In this episode, Dr. Valentin Fuster reviews the Ironman trial, which studied the effects of intravenous iron on patients with heart failure and iron deficiency. While intravenous iron improved symptoms and reduced recurrent hospitalizations, it did not significantly impact first-time hospitalizations or mortality rates, suggesting the need for further research into its broader clinical benefits.
