Abstract

Iron deficiency (ID) is common amongst patients with heart failure (HF). The European Society of Cardiology (ESC) guidelines recommends intravenous (IV) Iron supplementation in symptomatic HF patients with reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and ID to alleviate HF symptoms and improve quality of life. The current study aims to assess adherence to the latest ESC guidelines in treatment of ID in HF patients admitted to non-cardiac (outlier) wards at St. George's University Hospital (SGH), London. The results were compared to standard practice at a dedicated heart failure unit (HFU) at SGH.
