Take Home Points

Infuse factor first, investigate later
Treat when bleeding is suspected, not confirmed. Have a low threshold!
It is better to over treat than undertreat. Give full dose when in doubt
- Factor 8 = 50U/kg
- Factor 9 = 100 U/kg
Beware of hidden bleeds (brain, retroperitoneal, deep muscles)
If patient has inhibitors, or no factor available you may use
- Activated PCC (FEIBA) = 80 -100U/kg
- Recombinant factor 7a = 90 mcg/kg
