Balancing anticoagulation and hemostasis in an infant with severe hemophilia A during cardiac transplantation: Review of the literature and development of a surgical protocol. Pediatr Blood Cancer 2024; 71:e30759. [PMID: 37935644 DOI: 10.1002/pbc.30759] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/20/2023] [Revised: 09/26/2023] [Accepted: 10/17/2023] [Indexed: 11/09/2023]
Abstract
Hemophilia A is a disorder resulting in a deficiency of clotting factor VIII that can lead to life-threatening bleeding. Evidence-based guidelines for surgical interventions like cardiac surgery are limited. Anticoagulation is necessary for cardiac bypass, thus risk of bleeding in a patient with hemophilia is increased and requires careful attention to maintain hemostasis. We report the first infant with severe hemophilia A and dilated cardiomyopathy who underwent successful cardiac transplantation, and review the literature on previous cardiac transplant cases in congenital hemophilia. To ensure safe and effective management, a multidisciplinary approach was used to develop the surgical protocol for transplant.

Abstract
Key Clinical Message A multidisciplinary team approach, careful hemostasis, and factor replacement therapy are important in the perioperative management of hemophiliac patients undergoing pediatric cardiac surgery. Abstract The combination of congenital heart diseases (CHD) and hemophilia is rare; furthermore, heart surgery and perioperative management of such cases is challenging. This report illustrates the challenges of pediatric cardiac surgery in an infant with both hemophilia B and CHD. Multidisciplinary team approach, careful hemostasis, and factor replacement therapy were key to success without hemorrhagic complications before, during and after surgery.

The impact of bleeding event frequency on health-related quality of life and work productivity outcomes in a European cohort of adults with haemophilia A: insights from the CHESS II study. Orphanet J Rare Dis 2023; 18:227. [PMID: 37537683 PMCID: PMC10398941 DOI: 10.1186/s13023-023-02690-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/12/2022] [Accepted: 04/02/2023] [Indexed: 08/05/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Haemophilia A carries a substantial healthcare burden, affecting health-related quality of life (HRQoL). The Cost of Haemophilia in Men: a Socioeconomic Survey II (CHESS II), a retrospective real-world study, characterised the burden of haemophilia and its impact on HRQoL and work productivity. The current analysis explored the impact of bleeding events on HRQoL and work productivity in Europe. This analysis focused on data collected from males aged 18 to 64 years with haemophilia A without inhibitors who were receiving replacement factor products or a monoclonal antibody and were not participating in a clinical trial at the time of study recruitment. Descriptive statistics were analysed using scores from EuroQoL's EQ-5D-5L index and EQ-VAS analogue scale and the Work Productivity and Activity Index Specific Health Problem (WPAI:SHP) percentage scores stratified by the number of annual bleeding events (ABs) 0, 1, 2, 3-4, or ≥ 5. RESULTS Of 918 males with haemophilia A in CHESS II, 318 met inclusion criteria and had data available for HRQoL measures; mean age (SD) was 33.8 (12.1) years and 96% were White. Mean (SD) ABs of 2.7 (2.9) occurred over the preceding 12 months: 20% had 3 or 4 ABs; 17% had ≥ 5 ABs. Mean EQ-5D-5L index scores for patients with 0, 1, 2, 3-4, or ≥ 5 ABs were 0.92, 0.76, 0.76, 0.71, and 0.56, respectively. Mean (SD) EQ-VAS scores were 86.9 (13.6), with 0 ABs versus 69.5 (19.1) for 3 or 4 ABs and 61.2 (17.2) for ≥ 5 ABs. Mean percentage of overall work productivity loss on the WPAI:SHP questionnaire ranged from 9.70 to 0 ABs to 47.65 for ≥ 5 ABs. CONCLUSIONS In this European sample of adult men with haemophilia A, HRQoL and work productivity scores were lower among those reporting more AB events. Bleeding burden appears to affect HRQoL and productivity; however, this cross-sectional analysis limits the ability to draw firm conclusions on causality.

Abstract
Key Clinical Message In hemophilia patients undergoing cardiac surgery, ROTEM® and Quantra® viscoelastic tests are useful to monitor perioperative hemostatic status and a single dose of rIX-FP is safe and avoids any hemorrhagic or thrombotic complication. Abstract Cardiac surgery poses a high hemostatic risk in patients with hemophilia. We present the first case of an adult patient with hemophilia B on treatment with albutrepenonacog alfa (rIX-FP) who underwent surgery for acute coronary syndrome. Treatment with rIX-FP made it possible to perform the surgery safely.

Abstract
Pediatric perioperative clinical pharmacists are uniquely positioned to provide therapeutic and medication management expertise at a particularly vulnerable transition of care from the preoperative space, through surgery, and postoperative setting. There are many direct-patient care activities that are included in the role of the pediatric perioperative pharmacist, as well as many opportunities to develop effective, optimized, and safe medication use processes. This article outlines many of the areas in which a pediatric perioperative clinical pharmacist may intervene.

In vitro effects of emicizumab on activated clotting time in blood samples from cardiac surgical patients. Haemophilia 2021; 28:183-190. [PMID: 34735039 DOI: 10.1111/hae.14452] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/24/2021] [Revised: 10/15/2021] [Accepted: 10/22/2021] [Indexed: 12/20/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Heparin management in hemophilia A (HA) patients with a factor VIII (FVIII) inhibitor can be challenging due to severe activated clotting time (ACT) prolongations. It is important to better understand the impact of emicizumab, a FVIII mimetic on ACT, and tissue factor (TF)-based coagulation assays. METHODS Whole blood from 18 patients undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) were mixed in vitro with pooled normal plasma, FVIII-deficient or FVIII-inhibitor plasma to affect functional FVIII levels. ACTs and heparin concentration by protamine titration were measured in whole blood mixture with/without emicizumab (50-100 μg/ml). Thrombin generation and plasmin generation were measured in the patient's plasma mixed with normal plasma or FVIII-inhibitor plasma to assess the impact of emicizumab under low TF activation. RESULTS FVIII inhibitors prolonged ACTs by 2.2-fold compared to those in normal plasma mixture at baseline. During CPB, ACTs in normal plasma mixture, and FVIII-deficient mixture were in 400s, but ACTs reached 900s in FVIII-inhibitor mixture. Emicizumab shortened ACTs by up to 100s in normal plasma mixture, and FVIII-deficient mixtures. ACTs remained over 600s in FVIII-inhibitor mixture, despite adding emicizumab at 100 μg/ml. Heparin concentration measured by TF-based protamine titration was unaffected. Emicizumab enhanced thrombin peak in the presence of FVIII inhibitors, whereas plasmin generation was mainly affected by thrombin generation, and systemic use of ɛ-aminocaproic acid. CONCLUSIONS FVIII inhibitors extensively prolong ACTs in heparinized whole blood, and clinical levels of emicizumab partially reverse ACT values. Protamine titration should be considered for optimal heparin monitoring in emicizumab-treated patients with FVIII inhibitors.

Abstract
Introduction: People with hemophilia (PWH) may require some surgical procedures (orthopedic surgery, cardiac surgery, neurosurgery, et cetera) throughout their lives.Areas covered: Articles on surgery and hemophilia published during the year 2020 were analyzed. The principal inclusion factor was a focal point on surgery in hemophilia. Articles that did not concentrate on this subject were not included.Expert opinion: Turoctocog alfa pegol appears to be efficacious for perioperative hemostatic treatment of all kind of surgical operations (minor and major) in PWH A. Long-acting recombinant coagulation factor IX (FIX) albumin fusion protein (rIX-FP) seems to facilitate perioperative management in PWH B. In people suffering from von Willebrand disease (VWD), the utilization of concentrates of von Willebrand factor (VWF) is commonly used for the decrease of exaggerated bleeding during surgical operations. On-demand management with 30-60 IU/kg may keep hemostasis under control during all kind of surgical operations. Factor concentrates with extended half-life (EHL) are a good option to standard half-life (SHL) products in PWH undergoing surgery, permitting diminished number of infusions and inferior consuming, particularly for EHL factor IX (FIX). Supplementary factor VIII (FVIII) and/or bypassing management have demonstrated to be secure and efficacious in association with emicizumab for major surgical procedures.
