38
Q

hemophilia can be diagnosed via

A

prolonged PTT
decreased factor VIII or IX level

extent of prolongation does not correlated with factor level

39
Q

only way to distinguish hemophilia A from B

A

decreased factor VIII or IX level

40
Q

disease severity of hemophilia is associated with

A

residual factor level

41
Q

severe hemophilia

A

<1%

risk of spontaneous bleeding

42
Q

moderate hemophilia

A

1-5%

43
Q

mild hemophilia

A

6-30%

usually only have bleeds in relation to trauma

44
Q

what products should never be used to treat hemophilia

A

cryoprecipitate

45
Q

leading causes of death in hemophilia patients prior to 1980s

A

HIV and HCV

due to transfusion with contaminated blood products

exceedingly rare now

46
Q

treatment for hemophilia

A

factor VIII or IX concentrates
supportive: DDAVP, antifibrinolytics

DDAVP increases vWF, severe will not respond to this

DDAVP=desmopressin

47
Q

Dose calculation for factor VIII concentrate

A

(target FVIII level- baseline FVIII level) x body weight (kg) x 0.5 (unit/kg)

48
Q

dosing for factor VIII concentrate

A

twice daily or continuous

49
Q

dose calculation for factor IX concentrate

A

(target FIX level- baseline FIX level) x body weight (kg) x 1 (unit/kg)

50
Q

dosing for factor IX concentrate

A

once daily or continuous

51
Q

target factor levels for primary prophylaxis

A

1%

52
Q

target factor level: surgical prophylaxis

A

100% for 7-10 days, then tapered based on risk of bleeding

53
Q

target factor level: mild bleeding

A

30-50% for several days

54
Q

target factor level: severe bleeding

A

100% for several days

55
Q

incidence of antibodies to FVIII

A

5-10% of all cases
20% of severe cases

56
Q

incidence of antibodies to FIX

A

3-5% of all cases

57
Q

risk factors for FVIII or FIX inhibitors

A

severe deficiency
family hx
african descent
large gene deletions or rearrangements
intensive therapy

58
Q

hemophilia due to inhibitors shows a

A

lack of response to therapeutic dose of factor concentrates

59
Q

hemophilia due to factor inhibitors will develop ….. in life

A

early

60
Q

laboratory testing of hemophilia inhibitors

A

PTT 1:1 mixing study
bethesda assay

61
Q

<5 BU

A

low responder

62
Q

.>10 BU

A

high responder

more difficult to treat, use bypass agents like FVIIa to activate X

63
Q

1 BU

A

amount of inhibitor that neutralized 50% factor activity at 2 hr

64
Q

management of acute bleeding in low responders

A

high dose recombinant human or porcine factor concetrate

65
Q

management of acute bleeding in high responder

A

bypass agents (prothrombin complex concentrates) or recombinant factor VIIa

bypasses need for FVIII and FIX, but extremely difficult to titrate

66
Q

treatments for inhibitor reduction in hemophilia

A

immune tolerance induction
immunosuppression, anti CD20 (rituximab)

not super effective

67
Q

FXII, HMWK, prekallikrein deficiencies cause

A

prolonged PTT but no bleeding tendency

68
Q

FXI deficiency causes

A

variable bleeding tendency

depends on severity of mutation

69
Q

combined FV and FVIII deficiency is caused by

A

lack or dysfunction of chaperone protein

70
Q

hemophilia A is due to deficiency in factor

A

8

71
Q

in hemophilia A, deficiency of factor 8 risrupts the

A

intrinsic and common pathways

causes decreased factor X

A

hemophilia A

74
Q

hemophilia A leads to prolonged [PT/PTT]

A

PTT

75
Q

desomopressin can be used to treat

A

hemophilia A

induces platelets and endothelial cells to release factor 8

76
Q

inheritance pattern: hemophilia

A

X linked recessive

77
Q

Q

inherited clotting disorders are generally

A

uncommon

81
Q

deficiency of common factors is more likely to impact [PTT/PT]

A

PTT

82
Q

when treating factor deficiencies, always opt for …… as they are not infectious

A

concentrated producted

blood products are more commonly infectious

83
Q

Factor VIII catalyes the reaction of

A

FX to FXa

84
Q

screening test for VIII deficiency

Q

in type 2 vWD, the patient will have low levels of

A
