Piotr Czempik Shares His Latest Contribution to Acta Haematologica Polonic

Piotr Czempik, Chair of Department of Anesthesiology and Intensive Care at Medical University of Silesia, shared on LinkedIn:

”I’m pleased to share my latest contribution to Acta Haematologica Polonica:

“Intravenous iron is safe and effective in patients with infection and sepsis.”

This Letter to the Editor expands on an important and often controversial topic – the role of intravenous iron therapy in acutely ill patients.

Drawing on several years of research in iron metabolism among critically ill and septic patients, I discuss:

  • The high prevalence of iron deficiency anemia in this population
  • The diagnostic challenges caused by inflammation-driven distortion of traditional iron markers
  • The value of reticulocyte hemoglobin content (RET‑Hb) as a reliable, inflammation‑independent biomarker
  • Clinical observations suggesting that intravenous iron can be administered safely, even in sepsis
  • The need for individualized decision‑making and future randomized trials

As our understanding of iron metabolism in critical illness evolves, I hope this piece contributes to a more nuanced discussion and encourages further research in this area.

Thank you to colleagues and collaborators who continue to push this field forward.”
