Ideally, thrombophilia testing should be tailored to the type of thrombotic event without influence anticoagulation therapy or acute phase effects which can give false positive results that may result in long term anticoagulation. However, is often performed routinely unselected patients. We analyzed all consecutive orders during months October and November 2009 at an academic teaching institution. Information was extracted from electronic medical records for following: indication, timing,...
BACKGROUND Factor V (FV) deficiency may be inherited as an autosomal recessive disease or acquired a result of autoantibody formation, either spontaneously secondary to exposure bovine thrombin medications. Congenital FV has traditionally been treated with plasma transfusions. However, recent evidence suggested that platelet (PLT) transfusions better alternative stored within PLT alpha granules greater procoagulant potential and is released locally at sites vascular injury. We report three...
The liver plays a pivotal role in hemostasis. Consequently, patients with cirrhosis frequently demonstrate abnormal coagulation profiles on routine laboratory tests. These tests mainly reflect decreased procoagulant proteins. However, cirrhosis, complex changes also occur anticoagulant and fibrinolytic pathways. Recent evidence demonstrates that exist state of hemostatic rebalance. Accordingly, inadequately represent alterations these patients. Unfortunately, are regularly used to guide the...
It is unknown how pooled platelets (PPs) compare to random apheresis (RAPs) when HLA-selected (PLTs) are unavailable for HLA-sensitized patients. The aim of this study was patient responses RAPs, PLTs, and PPs in patients.This a single-institution retrospective patients from January 2014 April 2017 with class I calculated panel-reactive antibody 60% or more. Response transfusion determined by corrected count increment (CCI) up 1 hour after completion transfusion. A CCI 5 more considered...
Abstract: Vitamin K antagonists (VKAs) continue to be the most commonly prescribed class of oral anticoagulants worldwide for treatment and prevention venous or arterial thromboembolic events (TEEs). While VKAs are effective at reducing incidence TEEs, risk major bleeding remains significant. In patients taking presenting with clinically significant undergoing an emergent procedure, a rapid, effective, safe reversal agent is required. Available options include plasma, vitamin K, 3-factor...
Objective: To identify whether inpatient thrombophilia testing affects clinical management of adult patients admitted with an ischemic stroke or transient attack (TIA). Background: As there are no well-defined guidelines, is often performed as part the diagnostic evaluation TIA. During setting, results may be inaccurate due to interference concurrent anticoagulation acute phase reactants. Furthermore, hospitals not reimbursed for testing. We evaluated TIA. Methods: We a retrospective...
