Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

continuous iv administration of iron sucrose

Prior to the study, all our patients were receiving intravenous iron sucrose in an intermittent mode (every 1-4 weeks).Patients on this arm will receive the same previous dose of iron glucose but in a continuous mode (smaller doses of iron sucrose in every session).
