-Summary

Oral iron is commonly used in conjunction with EPO preoperatively for hemorrhagic surgeries in children and especially in the surgery of craniosynostosis. The bioavailability of oral iron is low and compliance with treatment is inconsistent. The aim of this study is to evaluate whether the use of ferric carboxymaltose by injection, which has a much better bioavailability, would make it possible to increase the preoperative hemoglobin level more effectively and thus reduce the risk of perioperative blood transfusion .

+Detailed description

Prospective study, randomized in two parallel groups (martial treatment versus venous injection) and stratified by center (Montpellier, Nice, Angers).

The number of subjects required is 100 patients, or 50 per group.

+Arms and interventions

ArmTypeInterventionsDescription
Ferrous fumarate or ferrostraneActive comparatorDrug: Ferrous fumarate or ferrostraneThe oral treatment should begin 21 days before surgery. Recommended Dosage ferrous fumarate according to the SPC in force: * 5 to 8 kg: 2 cd rases / d or 200mg of ferrous fumarate * 8 to 10 kg: 3 cd rases / d or 300mg of ferrous fumarate * 10 to 12kg: 4 cd rases / d or 400mg of ferrous fumarate Ferrostrane ® (syrup) Laboratory TEOFARMA SRL Either 34mg of iron per teaspoon Recommended dosage according to the SPC in force: * Infant 5 to 8 kg (about 1 to 6 months): 2 teaspoons a day, * Infant from 8 to 12 kg (about 6 to 30 months): 3 teaspoons a day.
Ferric carboxymaltoseExperimentalDrug: Ferrous fumarate or ferrostraneThe single intravenous treatment the day of the inclusion. Dosage according to: 15mg / kg iron (to dilute in 3 ml / kg of Nacl 0.9% (SSI), to pass in 15 minutes.
  • Ferrous fumarate or ferrostrane (Drug), also known as Intravenous ferric carboxymaltose.: Young children operated with craniosynostosis and treated with EPO and ferrous fumarate or ferostrane per os or intravenous ferric carboxymaltose.

+Outcome measures

Primary outcomes

  • Variation from reference in hemoglobin rate at the day before surgery [Hemoglobin rate change from reference day (right before treatment) to one day before surgery (from 22 days to 5 weeks maximum)]: Variation of hemoglobin rate between reference value (collected right before the implementation of treatment) and preoperative hemoglobin rate (collected one day before surgery)

Secondary outcomes

  • Variation from reference in hemoglobin rate at the day before surgery depending on the reference iron status [Reference day (right before treatment) and one day before surgery (from 22 days to 5 weeks maximum)]: Variation of hemoglobin rate between reference value (collected right before the implementation of treatment) and preoperative hemoglobin rate (collected one day before surgery) depending on the reference iron status
  • Variation from reference in hemoglobin rate at the day before surgery depending on the inflammatory state of patient evaluated by CRP rate before treatment [Reference day (right before treatment) and one day before surgery (from 22 days to 5 weeks maximum)]: Variation of hemoglobin rate between reference value (collected right before the implementation of treatment) and preoperative hemoglobin rate (collected one day before surgery) depending on the CRP rate before treatment
  • Frequency of EPO treatment discontinuation at the end of 2nd injection [15 days before surgery]: Number of patient stopping EPO injections at the end of 2nd injection
  • Variation from reference in iron status at the day before surgery [Reference day (right before treatment) and one day before surgery (from 22 days to 5 weeks maximum)]: Changes in iron status between reference day (right before the implementation of treatment) and preoperative iron status (one day before surgery)
  • Occurrence of adverse events due to experimental treatments [from treatment administration to end of patient follow-up]: Comparision of adverse event du to experimental treatments (ferric carboxymaltose versus ferrous fumarate)
  • Compliance of oral iron treatment [At the end of oral iron treatment]: Evaluated by visual analogic scale (0 the minimum to 10 the maximum)
  • Rate of blood transfusion in perioperative phase and during 3 days following surgery [Perioperative phase and during 3 days following surgery]: Number of transfused patients among all patients
  • Number of packed red blood cells transfused in perioperative phase and during 3 days following [Perioperative phase and during 3 days following surgery]
  • Volume of packed red blood cells transfused [Perioperative phase and during 3 days following surgery]: Volume in mL/kg
  • Total perioperative blood loss [Perioperative phase and during 3 days following surgery]: Expressed in red blood cell mass
  • Cost of oral ferrous fumarate treatment compared to ferric carboxymaltose treatment [At the end of patient folllow-up (6 months after surgery)]
