Brief summary
The objective of the present study is to determine the impact of intraoperative IV-iron supplementation on postoperative recovery of RBC mass by retrospectively analyzing and comparing the changes of postoperative hematocrit values after the surgery in patients underwent elective uni-limb total knee arthroplasty surgery with or without IV-iron supplementation during surgery
Interventions
Ferric carboxymaltose is administered during surgery
Ferric carboxymaltose is not administered
