Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

In patients undergoing cardiac surgery, perioperative anemia is an important factor in surgical recovery. In addition to the low preoperative hemoglobin level, the delayed recovery of the postoperative hemoglobin level is an important problem affecting the incidence of postoperative anemia. Erythroferron is the early response to of the red blood cell production in stressful situations such as anemia, bleeding, and hypoxia. Therefore, it is thought that acute blood loss and systemic inflammatory reaction that inevitably occurs after cardiac surgery will synthesize erythroferron, which helps to restore hemoglobin level at postoperative period by promoting hematopoiesis by simultaneously inhibiting hepcidin and activating hematopoiesis.

In this study, the investigators will investigate the association between Erythroferron and perioperative hemoglobin levels in patient undergoing heart valve surgery.

    Arms and Interventions

    Arm Intervention/Treatment
    Low Erythroferron group

    The lower concentration group will be Group1.

    High Erythroferron group

    The higher concentration group will be Group2.

    Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Change of hemoglobin concentration level after surgery in patients undergoing heart valve surgery [at immediate after surgery, 1 day after surgery, 2 days after surgery(POD2), 7 days after surgery (POD7), first outpatient visit (up to 1 month after surgery) after discharge]

      Compare the change of hemoglobin concentration level after surgery in patients undergoing heart valve surgery, by dividing the groups according to the level of erythroferron immediately after surgery. The amount of change will be compared based on the lowest level of hemoglobin during the time point after surgery. Since investigators planed to compare the recovery rate as well as the amount of recovery at each time point, investigators planed to record the change of hemoglobin at each time point based on the lowest hemoglobin level after surgery.
