  • Title: [Investigations of iron and folate levels in serum after implantation of heart valve prostheses (author's transl)].
    Author: Heilmann E, Bender F, Gülker H, Bonke J.
    Journal: Herz; 1979 Jun; 4(3):298-302. PubMed ID: 378804.
    Abstract:
    In 90 patients with prosthetic heart valves, the presence of iron and folate deficiencies was assessed in a double-blind study. Anemia was found in 18 cases. Average serum iron levels were below the normal range and could be incremented significantly through the administration of 193 mg Fe++ daily during a 4-week period. No evidence of folate deficiency was found.
