PBM for Iron Deficiency
1. Disclaimer: This presentation has been designed for UK Healthcare Trusts using
guidelines available by February 2018. If you wish to use this presentation for your
own trust, please make any changes necessary to comply with your local guidelines,
and ensure the references used are still valid at the date you are training.
Please note, this presentation follows the local guidance in the Trust it was first
designed for, which involved taking a haematinic screen in the first instance of
anaemia in pregnancy.
Current national guidance states that iron deficiency anaemia in pregnancy can be
confirmed by administering a trial of oral iron in microcytic or normocytic anaemia
(unless the woman is know to have a haemoglobinopathy).If this is your local policy
you will need to edit the slides accordingly.

3. WHAT IS PATIENT BLOOD MANAGEMENT?
PBM is an evidence
based, multi-disciplinary
approach to optimising
the care of patients who
may need a transfusion

5. HOW CAN PBM HELP OUR WOMEN?
• Anaemia in pregnancy affects more than 56 million women globally
• Iron deficiency in pregnancy is a well known risk for adverse maternal and foetal outcome
• Correction of anaemia, even late in pregnancy, may reduce these adverse events
Other options to use PBM include the appropriate use of cell salvage for caesarean sections

7. AUDIT RESULTS FOR ‘Local Hospital’
?% of women were anaemic at booking
?% of women were anaemic at 28 weeks
?% of women were anaemic pre delivery
?% of women were anaemic post delivery
?% of women had a transfusion
?% of women were prescribed oral iron post delivery
?% of women who had a caesarean section had a EBL of 500 ml or more
? = replace with local hospital data
8. FIRST TRIMESTER
• Review Hb and thalasaemia screen
at booking
• If Hb result of <110g/l add on a
haematinics screen
• Check patient history to find out if
they’ve ever had oral iron before and
if it was effective
• Offer empirical trial of oral iron –
ferrous sulphate 200mg tds
• Educate the women about the most
effective way of taking oral iron, and
encourage them to seek further
advice if they suffer from side effects
• Check Hb 4 weeks after they start
oral iron, an increase of 20g/L can
be expected.

9. WEEKS 13-34
• Women with multiple pregnancy
should have an additional FBC at 20-
24 weeks
• Check patient history to find out if
they’ve ever had oral iron before and if
it was effective
• Offer empirical trial of oral iron –
ferrous sulphate 200mg tds
• If Hb <105g/L, schedule haematinics
screen to confirm iron deficiency
• Educate the women about the most
effective way of taking oral iron, and
encourage them to seek further advice if
they suffer from side effects
• Check Hb 4 weeks after they start oral
iron, an increase of 20g/L can be
expected.
• If Hb doesn’t improve after 4 weeks,
discuss with women. If there is
compliance with taking oral iron, or
compliance can’t be improved, refer for
IV iron

10. AFTER 34 WEEKS
• If Hb <105g/dl, schedule haematinics screen to confirm iron deficiency
• If iron deficiency is confirmed, refer directly for IV iron

11. STRAIGHT TO IV IRON AFTER 34 WEEKS?!
• RCOG Green-top guidelines state that oral iron should be the preferred
first line treatment for iron deficiency
• However, parental iron is indicated if the women is approaching term
and there if insufficient time for oral supplementation to be effective
RCOG Greentop Guidelines – Blood Transfusion in Obstetrics – May 2018
12. When else might IV iron be used in
pregnancy?
As well as if the patient has iron deficiency anaemia and is >34 weeks, IV
iron may also be considered if:
• There are significant symptoms of anaemia
• Oral iron is not showing a response
• Anaemia is severe (Hb <70g/L)
In these cases, the woman should be referred to secondary care.
Pavord et al (2012) UK guidelines on the management of iron deficiency in pregnancy British Journal of
Haematology , 158 , 588-600
13. WHEN IS IV IRON CONTRAINDICATED?
• The first trimester
• During cases of sepsis (but can be given post sepsis)
• Chronic liver disease
• Iron overload or haemochromatosis
• Known serious hypersensitivity to any parenteral iron products
• Non iron deficiency anaemia
• The risk is enhanced for patients with
known allergies including drug
allergies, including patients with a
history of severe asthma, eczema or
other atopic allergy
• There is an increased risk of
hypersensitivity reactions to parenteral
iron complexes in patients with
immune or inflammatory conditions
(e.g. systemic lupus erythematosus,
rheumatoid arthritis).
14. NOT SURE IF IV IRON IS APPROPRIATE?
• Contact the woman’s obstetrician for advice
Notes de l'éditeur
Note that there is full record sets for most patients, so portionel percentage of women that are anaemic post delivery is likely skewed up – because they are more likely to have an FBC at this point if they are suspecting anaemia.
