  Iron-deficiency anemia in pregnancy is highly prevalent and presents significant risk to patients. Initial treatment is often with oral medication. We hypothesized that intravenous ferumoxytol would result in superior treatment of anemia as compared to oral ferrous sulfate.

  Anemia in pregnancy is common worldwide and has known maternal risks. The relationship between the types of treatment offered for maternal anemia and the effects on the fetus and newborn are largely uninvestigated.

  Community physicians are becoming increasingly involved in clinical medical education. Some obstetrician/gynecologists have expressed reluctance to participate as clinical preceptors for medical students due to the sensitive nature of many of their patient encounters and concern for diminished patient satisfaction.
