Discussion

Prospective study shows serum iron levels decline in potential donors after brain death, indicating critical monitoring.

Serum iron levels show a statistically significant increase to 3.59 μmol/l after confirmation of brain death, highlighting the importance of monitoring.
At stage 1, the iron level was 3.32 μmol/l, with lower levels seen in donors with traumatic brain injury compared to non-traumatic donors, indicating variance.
The study identified a significant inverse correlation between intracranial hematoma volume and serum iron levels at stage 1, which may influence donor management.
Findings suggest that serum iron dynamics should be considered in intensive care protocols for brain-dead potential organ donors.

Lipnitski et al. (2025) studied this question.
