| Popis | Numerous recent reports have described the use of recombinant factor VIIa (rFVIIa) in non-hemophilia bleeding Situations for achievement of hemostasis. However, its use in clinical situations other than hemophilia patients with inhibitors has been complicated by some reports of thrombotic events. rFVIIa has been used successfully to treat coagulopathic and/or bleeding neonates. The prevalence of thrombotic events in these neonates is completely unknown. This study was initiated to determine the risk of thrombotic events associated with rFVIIa use in neonates. Procedure. All published literature in non-hemophilic, non-congenital factor VII deficient neonates receiving rFVIIa was reviewed. In addition, all data submitted to the SeveN Bleep Registry, a web-based registry of rFVIIa uses in non-hemophilic children was analyzed. |
