A member asked:
Does an iron infusion require "monitoring"? can it have a bad effect on a person having had recent atrial fibrillation event?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Allergies: The main concern is a patient having anaphylaxis reaction to the infusion. This is an allergic reaction. The atrial fibrillation is not associated with an increase reaction rate.
