This review examined perioperative iron therapy in acute major non-cardiac surgery. IV iron showed a lower 30-day mortality, a reduction in postoperative infections and a reduction in ABT largely due to the observational studies. The review primarily consisted of small observational studies and does not have the power to formally recommend this practice.
