Overview

Retrospective study revealed low maternal side effects and no adverse fetal outcomes among 472 pregnant women treated with ferric carboxymaltose.

Key Points

  • Intravenous ferric carboxymaltose significantly improved hemoglobin levels in pregnant women with iron deficiency anemia, with a median increase of 1.4 g/dL after five weeks.
  • The majority of patients (80%) underwent computerized cardiotocography assessment, with 98.4% meeting normal fetal wellbeing criteria, highlighting the safety of treatment.
  • In this multicenter retrospective study, only 1.4% experienced maternal side effects, indicating a favorable safety profile for ferric carboxymaltose.
  • Further prospective studies are essential to validate these findings regarding iron deficiency anemia treatment and maternal and fetal outcomes.
