Irogue Igbinosa: Rethinking Iron Deficiency in Pregnancy with Intravenous Therapy
Irogue Igbinosa, Maternal Fetal Medicine Physician at Stanford University School of Medicine, shared a post on LinkedIn about a recent article she and her colleagues co-authored, published in Obstetrics and Gynecology:
“Publication Alert, excited to share that our recent trial: Intravenous Ferumoxytol Compared With Oral Ferrous Sulfate for Iron Deficiency Anemia in Pregnancy: A Randomized Controlled Trial, was published recently.
Backstory: I’ve been working on since this trial since MFM (maternal fetal medicine fellow) fellowship.
Thankful for a team (Ijeoma Iwekaogwu, Elizabeth Sherwin, Stephanie Leonard, Deirdre Lyell and Caroline Berube) that helped from beginning to end.
Key Takeaway: Mild anemia in pregnancy should be treated and IV iron (ferumoxytol) should be considered as an option.”
