The Glasgow University iron deficiency research team BOFFINS at the University of Glasgow are investigating whether testing patients for iron deficiencies could make a difference to heart surgery recoveries. The researchers are working to find out which is the best test for anaemia before undergoing heart surgery. It has been estimated that up to half of these recovering from heart surgery also have iron deficiency This can lead to having to undergo increased blood transfusions, longer stays in intensive care as well as a slower recovery time. The project is funded by a £300k grant from the British Heart Foundation (BHF).
