The Natural History of Factor VIII : C Inhibitors in Patients With Hemophilia A : A National Cooperative Study
نویسندگان
چکیده
During a 4-year multicenter cooperative study of acquired factor VIII inhibitors in persons with hemophilia A. new inhibitors were detected in 31 of 1 .306 patients who entered the study without an inhibitor or the history of an inhibitor. The incidence of new inhibitors was eight per 1 .000 patient-years of observation. The factor Vlll:C level before inhibitor development was 0.03 U/mi in 29 mdividuals and 0.06 U/mi and 0.07 U/mi in the remaining two. Factor Vlll:Ag levels were measured in 27 individuals and were < 0.03 U/mi in 23 and 0.05 to 0.1 1 U/mi in the remaining four. Maximum inhibitor levels ranged from 1.0

The Survey of Effective Agents on Factor VIII and IX Inhibitors in Patients with Hemophilia A and B in Kermanshah Province
Background: Hemophilia is the most frequent severe hereditary hemorrhagic disease due to deficiency of coagulation factors VIII (Hemophilia A) or IX (Hemophilia B) in plasma. We aimed to identify patients with hemophilia in Kermanshah, Iran and assess the incidence of inhibitors in this population and its associated factors. Methods: This study was conducted on patients with hemophilia...
متن کاملDetection of Factor VIII Inhibitors in Hemophilia A Patients
Background: Factor VIII administration to hemophilia A patients results in an immune response (inhibitor formation) which significantly complicates the therapy. The present study was performed to determine the prevalence of inhibitor development in hemophilia A patients receiving recombinant factor VIII therapy. Materials and Methods: This was an observational descriptive study. Clotting fac...
