Iron deficiency (ID) is a very common comorbidity in patients with heart failure (HF). It can lead to worsening of heart failure symptoms and decreased quality of life regardless of the presence or absence of anemia. In an effort to increase awareness about the impacts of ID in HF, this new educational hub will aim to provide several resources to both clinicians and patients about risk factors, diagnosis, and treatment of ID.
