Treatment of hemophilia A and B.
نویسنده
چکیده
Treatment for patients with hemophilia and other bleeding disorders has evolved over the past several decades. Replacement of the specific missing plasma protein is necessary for hemostasis to occur. Lyophilized factor concentrate products contain these proteins. This chapter will address purity and viral safety issues for most of the coagulation products currently available. Dosing and nursing implications relative to documentation will also be discussed.

متن کاملRecent Advances in Hemophilia Gene Therapy
Heterogeneous loss of function mutations at F8 and F9 genes causes X-linked recessive bleeding disorders, hemophilia A (HA) and hemophilia B (HB), respectively. HA is clinically indistinguishable from HB and accounts for more than 80% of hemophilia cases; the former affects 1/5000 and the latter 1/25000 male births worldwide. In Iran, it is estimated that around 4300 HA and 900 HB patients are ...

Background: Hemophilia B is an X-linked hereditary disorder of blood coagulation system which is caused by factor IX (FIX) deficiency. Factor IX is a plasma glycoprotein that participates in the coagulation process leading to the generation of fibrin. Replacement of factor IX with plasma-derived or recombinant factor IX is the conventional treatment for hemophilia B to raise the factor IX le...
