Summary

The purpose of the study is to evaluate whether the administration of iron to patients with heart failure and preserved ejection fraction results in an improvement of symptoms and functional class, in addition to evaluating whether oral iron is equivalent to intravenous iron to achieve this improvement.

Conditions

  • Heart Failure With Normal Ejection Fraction
  • Ferropenic Anemia

Interventions

OTHER

Placebo

The group assigned to placebo will receive an infusion of normal saline solution plus oral lactose capsules identical to oral medication.

DRUG

Ferric carboxymaltose

The group assigned to receive intravenous iron will receive intravenous ferric carboxymaltose ajusted by weight and Hb levels according to study protocol plus oral placebo

DRUG

Ferroglycine Sulfate

One group assigned to receive oral iron will receive two 100 mg oral capsule of ferroglycine sulfate plus intravenous placebo (normal saline solution)

DRUG

Sucrosomial Iron
