Brief summary

The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of Intravenous iron isomaltoside on maintaining hemoglobin concentration in patients undergoing bimaxillary orthognathic surgery. Fifty-eight patients, aged 19 to 40 years, scheduled for Bimaxillary orthognathic surgery will be divided into monofer (n=29) and control (n=29) groups. Randomly selected patients of the ulinastatin group are given intravenous iron isomaltoside. In contrast, patients in the control group receive an equivalent volume of normal saline as a placebo. The primary endpoints are postoperative hemoglobin concentration.

Detailed description

Bimaxillary orthognathic surgery is widely used to correct dentofacial anomaly and bimaxillary prognathism. However, the complicated vascularity of the surgical site and limited visual field can lead to unexpected bleeding. Intravenous iron isomaltoside 1000 (monofer®) significantly increased the hemoglobin level and prevented anemia 4 weeks after cardiac surgery. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of Intravenous iron isomaltoside on maintaining hemoglobin concentration in patients undergoing bimaxillary orthognathic surgery. Fifty-eight patients, aged 19 to 40 years, scheduled for Bimaxillary orthognathic surgery will be divided into monofer (n=29) and control (n=29) groups. Randomly selected patients of the ulinastatin group are given intravenous iron isomaltoside. In contrast, patients in the control group receive an equivalent volume of normal saline as a placebo. The primary endpoints are postoperative hemoglobin concentration.

Interventions

Randomly selected patients of the monofer group are given 1000mg of iron isomaltoside, which are mixed in 100ml normal saline, intravenous after induction for 30 minutes.

DRUGNormal saline

Randomly selected patients in the control group receive an equivalent volume of normal saline as a placebo.

MeasureTime frameDescription
postoperative hemoglobin level1 day after surgeryPostoperative hemoglobin concentration

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
hematogenous function1 day after surgerythe hematogenous function measured by serum iron, ferritin, transferrin saturation, and total iron binding capacity, reticulocyte
quality of life(LASA)1 day after surgeryThe quality of life measured by LASA(Linear Analogue Self Assessment) questionnaire. LASA includes five simple items, each of which targets a specific domain of quality of life. Five single items(overall, physical, emotional, spiritual, intellectual) asking respondents to rate, on zero to ten scales, their perceived level of functioning.
