The primary objective is to compare the effect of a single dose of ferric derisomaltose (FDI) (20 mg/kg body weight) relative to placebo on patients' recovery of functional mobility, measured as the change from baseline in the New Mobility Score. Participants will: \- Receive either a single dose of intravenous FDI (20 mg/kg body weight) (and saline) or placebo (saline) at 1-5 days after surgery.
