69
Management of haemophilia a: chronic
Plasma derived factor eight. Emicuximab - recant immunoglobulin that is used for prophylactic treatment Needs to see a haematologist have a factor eight activity level, blood type, anti-hemophilic factor antibody status. I need to know their last day of hospitalization.
70
List eight reasons for factor replacement and haemophilia
Suspected bleeding into a joint or muscle. Any significant injury to the head, neck, mouth or eyes. Any newer, unusual headache, particularly falling trauma. Severe pain or swelling at any location All wounds that require surgical closure or wound did he? History of trauma. Prior to any invasive procedure surgery Suspicion of uncontrolled G.I. bleed, or any symptoms of hypovolemia Acute fracture, dislocation, or sprain Suspicion of uncontrolled heavy menstrual bleeding, leading to anaemia or symptoms of hypovolemia.
71
When can you give DDAVP and haemophilia a?
Mild hemophilia a without inhibitors that are bleeding, but that is not life or limb, threatening, which increases factor 8 3 to 6 times their baseline level
72
What factor eight level to give in haemophilia a
One unit per KG factor eight will increase circulating factor eight level by 2% Therefore, if the factor level is known dose equals desired times 8×0.5×8 KG. An emergency situation assume level is 0% Therefore goals for minor bleeding or trauma should be 40 to 50% and 80 to 100% for serious or like threatening bleed
73

75
How to treat haemophilia B?
Recombinant factor nine preparation or plasma drives concentration and emergency situations. Do not give FFP do not give cryer precipitated as it does not contain nine. In severe bleeding, give 100 to 140 units per KGIV, which should result in a factor level of 80 to 100% If they have inhibitors, they need haematology in the hospital: administer at 90 µg per kilogram IV and if not on prophylactic med (emicizumab) get PCC at 75 to 100 units per KGIV
