Salvage 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...

Ineffective off-label use of recombinant activated factor VII in a case of bone-marrow transplantation-related gastrointestinal bleeding

BACKGROUND For patients with a normal coagulation system, who experience serious bleeding, sound evidence for recombinant activated factor VII (rFVIIa) as an effective haemostatic agent is only scarcely available so far from controlled clinical trials. In systematic reviews on the clinical use of rFVIIa, treatment failures were only rarely reported. CASE PRESENTATION We present a 45-year old,...

Evidence supporting the use of recombinant activated factor VII in congenital bleeding disorders

BACKGROUND Recombinant activated factor VII (rFVIIa, NovoSeven) was introduced in 1996 for the treatment of hemophilic patients with antibodies against coagulation factor VIII or IX. OBJECTIVE To review the evidence supporting the use of rFVIIa for the treatment of patients with congenital bleeding disorders. PATIENTS AND METHODS English-language databases were searched in September 2009 fo...
