What Is an IV Iron Infusion?
An intravenous (IV) iron infusion is a medical treatment that delivers iron directly into the bloodstream, bypassing the digestive system. This method is particularly beneficial for individuals who:
-
Have iron deficiency anemia unresponsive to oral iron supplements.
-
Experience gastrointestinal side effects from oral iron.
-
Have conditions that impair iron absorption, such as inflammatory bowel disease or coeliac disease.
During the procedure, a healthcare professional inserts a small needle into a vein in your arm or hand. The iron solution is then administered slowly over a period of 15 to 60 minutes, depending on the prescribed dose.
Assessing Iron Levels
To determine the need for an iron infusion, several blood tests are conducted
-
Haemoglobin and Mean Cell Volume (MCV): Assess the oxygen-carrying capacity and size of red blood cells.
-
Serum Iron: Measures the amount of circulating iron in the blood.
-
Transferrin: A protein that transports iron; levels increase when iron is low.
-
Ferritin: Reflects stored iron levels; low ferritin is a reliable indicator of iron deficiency.
Monitoring these parameters helps in diagnosing iron deficiency and tailoring appropriate treatment plans.
Benefits of IV Iron Therapy
IV iron infusions offer several advantages:
-
Rapid Replenishment: Quickly restores iron levels, leading to faster symptom relief.
-
Improved Tolerance: Bypassing the gastrointestinal tract reduces common side effects associated with oral iron.
-
Enhanced Absorption: Ensures effective iron delivery, especially in individuals with absorption issues.
-
Convenience: Fewer doses may be needed compared to oral therapy.
