However, most studies on iron therapy to treat IDA have been negative and few have been conducted within an enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocol. Furthermore, patients with IDA often have comorbidities not necessarily influenced by iron, but potentially influencing traditional study endpoints such as length of stay (LOS), morbidity, etc. The aim of this paper is to discuss patient-related challenges when planning outcome studies on the potential benefits of iron therapy in patients with IDA, based upon a large detailed prospective database in ERAS total hip (THA) and knee arthroplasty (TKA).</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>A prospective observational cohort study in ERAS THA and TKA from 2022 to 2023.

Patients with IDA were a median 5 years older than non-anaemics, with an increased fraction living alone (38.4% vs. 28.8%), using walking aids (54.3% vs 26.4%) and receiving home care (16.2% vs 4.7%). Fewer IDA patients were working (12.7% vs. 29.6%) and a median number of prescribed drugs was higher (10 vs. 6). Median LOS was 1 day in both IDA and non-anaemic patients, but a LOS of > 2 days occurred in 11.6% of patients with IDA vs. 4.3% in non-anaemics. The proportion with 30- or 90-day readmissions was 6.5% vs. 4.1% and. 13.4% vs6.0%, in patients with IDA and non-anaemics, respectively.

We enrolled patients undergoing general anesthesia with invasive arterial monitoring. Patients were randomized 1:1 either to receive hemodynamic management with HPI guidance (intervention) or standard of care (control) treatment. Intraoperative hypotension treatment was initiated at HPI > 85 (intervention) or mean arterial pressure (MAP) < 65 mmHg (control).
