Over half of iron deficiency cases in large health system still unresolved at three years .

Study underscores the need for improvements in the proper recognition and timely treatment of more iron deficiency, especially among female and Black patients.

Iron is important in maintaining many body functions, including the production of hemoglobin, the molecule in the blood that carries oxygen.

Dr. Cogan attributes the delays in resolution to the diagnosis either being missed or not treated to resolution.

He added that there is a clear need for education about non-anemic iron deficiency and who is at high risk.

The study was limited by its reliance on EMR data and retrospective nature.
