Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: To determine whether IV iron supplementation in iron deficient non-anaemic CKD patients improves physical and functional status assessed by the 6MWT and questionnaires (KDQoL and MLHF).;Secondary Objective: Improvement in cardiac structure and function. Monitoring of physiological aspects using pulse oximetry and cardiac harness for heart and respiratory rate. Change in New York Heart association functional classification (NYHA) To investigate cardiac iron loading based on MRI using T2* in a small cohort of patients in a single centre (10 patients) To observe improvement in renal function as assessed with eGFR;Primary end point(s): To compare the effect of IV iron versus placebo on changes in physical function based on a 6-minute walk test and qualitative questionnaires in iron deficient non-anaemic chronic kidney disease patients.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Difference in the co analysis of a 6-minute walk test and questionnaires (KDQoL and Minnesota Living and Heart Failure Questionnaire (MLHF) patient quality of life and wellbeing) between experimental and placebo groups (Group 1) and control groups (Groups 2 and 3). | — |

| Secondary end point(s): Speckle tracking Echo parameters of cardiac function after 6MWT Hospitalisation rates from any cause in each group will be noted All-cause death and a composite of non-fatal myocardial infarction, stroke, and hospitalisation for heart failure All-cause mortality will be recorded Cardiovascular events, stroke, non-fatal myocardial infarction will be recorded Change in New York Heart association functional classification (NYHA) Thrombotic episodes Restless leg syndrome questionnaire ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: n/a | — |
