| clotting factor replacement therapy: Trauma Induced Coagulopathy Hunter B. Moore, Matthew D. Neal, Ernest E. Moore, 2020-10-12 The first edition of this publication was aimed at defining the current concepts of trauma induced coagulopathy by critically analyzing the most up-to-date studies from a clinical and basic science perspective.

| clotting factor replacement therapy: Anticoagulation Therapy Ozcan Basaran, Murat Biteker, 2016-09-08 The available parenteral and oral anticoagulants have a large clinical use. Understanding biochemistry of anticoagulants may help to improve therapeutic strategies. Resistance to vitamin K antagonist drugs might be a problem for rodent populations. Patients who have thrombogenic risk factors should be anticoagulated. The need for cardiac implantable electronic devices is increasing, and there is a substantial number of patients who are on oral anticoagulant therapy. Prothrombin complex concentrate and other plasma concentrates are useful to deal with over-coagulated situations. The efficacy and safety of non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants have been proven in large phase III trials. The real-world data suggest even better outcomes with these agents compared to vitamin K antagonists. |

| clotting factor replacement therapy: Hemophilia Todd Eckdahl, 2016-10-11 Hemophilia is a genetic disease that impairs the normal process of blood clotting and results in uncontrolled external and internal bleeding. The reader of this book will learn how a diagnosis of hemophilia is made by blood clotting tests and measurements of clotting factor levels in blood. The book describes how hemophilia A and B are caused by mutations in genes that encode clotting factor VIII and clotting factor IX, respectively, both of which are carried on the X chromosome. As a result, almost all children born with hemophilia A and B are boys. Hemophilia C is caused by mutations in the clotting factor XI gene on chromosome 4, and occurs in males and females with equal frequency. The author details the use of factor replacement therapy to treat hemophilia, and evaluates the prospects for curing hemophilia through gene therapy and genome editing. |
