Use of recombinant activated factor VII concentrate to control postoperative hemorrhage in complex cardiovascular surgery.
BACKGROUND Complex cardiovascular surgery often results in postoperative hemorrhage. Excessive blood product use may cause systemic thrombosis, end-organ dysfunction, and edema preventing chest closure. Recombinant activated factor VII (rFVIIa) concentrate may decrease hemorrhage where other treatment measures failed. We reviewed our experience with rFVIIa after complex cardiovascular surgery. ...
متن کاملThe role of recombinant activated factor VII in cardiac surgery
Recombinant factor VIIa may reduce surgical blood loss and transfusion of blood products in cardiac surgery. However, the true risks of its use in this setting remains to be elucidated, especially when it is administered with other potent pro-haemostatic agents. We reviewed the recent literature on this topic and suggest that the off label use of recombinant factor VIIa is likely to continue. I...
متن کاملUse of recombinant activated factor VII in trauma
In this article we describe the current use of recombinant activated factor VII (rFVIIa; NovoSeven®) in trauma patients. Emphasis is placed on current uses as defined by key studies, efficacy data, and safety data. Most published studies in trauma patients are retrospective case studies and reports, although an international, double-blind, randomized, controlled, phase II study has been conduct...
متن کاملOff-Label Use of Recombinant Activated Factor VII (NovoSeven®)
NovoSeven® (Novo Nordisk, Denmark) is a recombinant DNA preparation of activated blood coagulation factor VII (rFVIIa). It is used to manage bleeding in hemophilia patients for whom standard therapy is inadequate because of the presence of inhibitors to either factor VIII (hemophilia A) or factor IX (hemophilia B). It poses no risk for the transmission of human pathogens, and it is infused in r...
متن کاملSalvage use of activated recombinant factor VII in the management of refractory bleeding following cardiac surgery
BACKGROUND Refractory post cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) bleeding continues to cause concern for cardiac surgeons and intensivists. Massive postoperative hemorrhage following CPB is multifactorial and not fully understood, and it is also associated with increased mortality and morbidity. Activated recombinant factor VII (rFVIIa) has emerged as possible salvage medication in refractory post cardi...
