Q

issue with inhibitors in hemophilia b?

A

immune tolerance induction can –> anaphylaxis

47
Q

management for hemophilia A pt undergoing surgery

A

-ensure pt doesn’t have inhibitor
-replace factor to 100% immediately prior to procedure (give 50 u/kg)
-repeat bolus doses to maintain a trough >50% until bleeding risk has passed (50 iu/kg q12h, for example and adjust as needed…or continuous infusion of 3 IU/kg/hr to maintain trough>50%)
(major surgery: consider contin infusion)
-antifibrinolytics esp if mucous membrane surgery

48
Q

specifically for hemophilia B, surgical management?

A

120-140 u/kg of recombinant f9 (or 100 u/kg of plasma-derived f9) immediately before procedure to raise level to 100%…continue SAME dose q12-24h or can give continuous infusion of 6 iU/kg/hr to maintain trough >50%

49
Q

for dental procedures, how high do you want to correct for procedures? also give what?

50
Q

managament of hematuria in hemophilia?

A
  • correct to 80-100%
  • IV fluids: 1.5-2x maintenance
  • antifibronlytic agents are CONTRAINDICATED (unless you know for sure that the source is the lower urinary tract= bladder/urethra…but for exam just say no)
  • don’t give ddavp (not reliable enough)
  • glucocorticoids? limited data
51
Q

pt bleeding more than expected with factor tx…2 causes?

A
  • insufficient dose

- inhibitor

52
Q

if suspect inhibitor, manage how?

A
  • test for inhibitor immediately
  • for bleeding, tx with bypassing agent
  • for pts on ppx, therpay should be suspended
53
Q

RFs for inhibitor?

A
  • severe hemophila
  • fam hx of inhibitors
  • large deletion >nonsense>inversion>missense
  • african american higher
  • less risk if plasma-derived
  • short burst of needing a lot of factor therapy
  • cumulative exposure days (usually first 20 exp days)
54
Q

test for inhibitors?

A

bethesda assay

55
Q

how does bethesda assay work?

A

patient plasma, mix with normal plasma so each are 50%. tehn, measure f8 activity…if the pt sample alone has less factor 8 activity than the control mixture, then you know there’s an inhibitor.

56
Q

1 bethesda unit=?

A

amount of inhibitor that results in 50% residual FVIII:C activity of a defined test mixture.

57
Q

transient inhibitors are __ ___ and only picked up __ ___

A

clinically insignficant; on surveillance

58
Q

what constitues a high titer inhibitor?

A

> 5 BU…must use bypassing agents to treat and/or prevent bleeding

59
Q

for low titer inhibitors, do what?

A

can be treated with factor replacemnt at higher than usual doses

60
Q

manage inhibitors with?

A

immune tolerance therapy= regular (usually daily or q2 days) infsuions or factor to educate the immune system to become tolerant…takes 6-18 months

61
Q

when in tolerance achieved iwth ITI?

A

pt has recover of >66% adn half life of >6 hours

62
Q

what if someone with low titre inhibitor bleeds?

A

give higher dose of factor…multiply the inhibitor titre by the IU/kg that you would normally give for that bleed…recheck inhibitor titre after to make sure not rising

63
Q

what if someone with high titre inhibitor bleeds?

A

give aPCC or rFVIIIa

64
Q

rf7a dose for bleed in hemophilia?

A

90-120 mcg/kg

65
Q

uses for rF7a in hemphilia other than acute bleed with inhibitor?

A

surgical and regular ppx (same as for aPCC)

66
Q

what does aPCC contain?

A

Fs 2,7,9,10

67
Q

aPCC dose. for bleeding in hemophilia with inhibitor? for ppx?

A

bleed: 50-100 IU/kg/dose q8-12 (max 200 iu/kg/day)
ppx: 75 iu/kg q2 days

68
Q

you ___ tx high titre patients with factor

A

CANNOT

69
Q

does ddavp work for inhbitor pts?

A

no!

70
Q

what’s the most common bleeding d/o?

A

VWD (1% by lab…real = 1 in 500)

71
Q

types of bleeding in vwd?

A
epistaxis
easy bruising
oral bleeding
post-surg
menorrhagia

Q

2 roles of vwf?

A

plt binding

carrier molec for f8

73
Q

vwf is an __ __ __; what increases it?

A

acute phase reactant; phgy stress, DDAVP, estogen, preg
