Abstract

Decreases in platelet count, fibrinogen concentration, factor VIII, antithrombin III and alpha 2-antiplasmin activities, increase in FDP-D fraction, and pleural effusion were observed transiently at early fever stage of DHF at grade II, indicating DHF patients had manifestations of the acute type of DIC with increased permeability of vascular wall.

Prophylactic treatment of a small child with severe factor VII deficiency using repeat dosing from a single vial of recombinant activated factor VII.

We report our experience with a small child with severe factor VII deficiency and a history of frequent and spontaneous life-threatening hemorrhage. The patient has received several years of successful prophylactic treatment with an every 3-day infusion program in which she receives recombinant activated factor VII (rVIIa) using multiple doses from a single reconstituted vial over a 72-hr period. Comparison is made to prophylactic treatment in this same patient using plasma-derived factor VII (PDVII) using a prothrombin complex concentrate (PCC).

Heparin-induced inhibitory effects of a prothrombin complex concentrate on global tests of haemostasis.

Prothrombin complex concentrates (PCC) have been used as bypassing agents for the treatment of haemophilia A patients with inhibitor as well as for replacement therapy in congenital and acquired deficiencies of vitamin-K-dependent clotting factors. The efficacy of PCC is variable, however, especially during long-term and high-dose use, and all currently available products of this nature contain heparin. We have examined the haemostatic properties of PCC using reconstituted whole blood made by mixing coagulation-factor-deficient plasma and washed blood cells. In rotation thromboelastometry (ROTEM), the recommended therapeutic dose of Proplex ST corrected the abnormal patterns. At higher concentrations, however, the ROTEM patterns regressed. In addition, specific assays of coagulation factors appeared unreliable in the presence of 2.5 U/ml Proplex ST; the abnormalities were corrected when protamine sulfate was added. The findings suggest that the presence of heparin in PCC might have a greater effect on global haemostasis. Careful attention to the anticoagulant effect as well as thrombogenicity of PCC is required. Monitoring therapy using such as ROTEM analysis could be highly informative.
