Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Inclusion criteria:
  • Patients age 18-89 admitted with a lower extremity or pelvis fracture requiring surgical stabilization

  • Exclusion criteria:
  • History of intolerance or hypersensitivity to IV iron supplementation
  • Active hemorrhage requiring greater than two units (whole blood or pRBCs) transfused perioperatively

  • Pregnancy
  • Iron overload (defined as serum ferritin concentration ≥ 1,000ng/mL, serum iron concentration \> 160μg/ dL, or serum transferrin saturation ≥ 50%) or any condition associated with iron overload (e.g., hemochromatosis and aceruloplasminemia)
  • Patients that are tenets of the Jehovah's Witness faith
  • Vulnerable populations including pediatric patients, geriatric populations 90 or older, incarcerated individuals, those unable to provide informed consent
