Results (p < 0.001) (p < 0.001) % Conclusions • Among patients with chronic heart failure and iron deficiency, the use of intravenous iron for 24 weeks was beneficial • This therapy resulted in improved symptoms and functional capacity • Intravenous iron appeared to be safe Much or moderately improved patient assessment NYHA class I or II Intravenous iron Placebo Anker SD, et al.
