Complications and Implant Survival of Total Knee Arthroplasty in People with Hemophilia. J Clin Med 2022; 11:6244.

Abstract
Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is a commonly used option in advanced stages of knee arthropathy in people with hemophilia (PWH). The objective of this article is to determine what the complication rates and implant survival rates in PWH are in the literature. A literature search was carried out in PubMed (MEDLINE), Cochrane Library, Web of Science, Embase and Google Scholar utilizing the keywords "hemophilia TKA complications" on 20 October 2022. It was found that the rate of complications after TKA in PWH is high (range 7% to 30%), although it has improved during the last two decades, possibly due to better perioperative hematologic treatment. However, prosthetic survival at 10 years has not changed substantially, being in the last 30 years approximately 80% to 90% taking as endpoint the revision for any reason. Survival at 20 years taking as endpoint the revision for any reason is 60%. It is possible that with a precise perioperative control of hemostasis in PWH, the percentage of complications after TKA can be diminished.

Surgical outcomes in people with hemophilia A taking emicizumab prophylaxis: experience from the HAVEN 1-4 studies. Blood Adv 2022; 6:6140-6150. [PMID: 35939785 PMCID: PMC9768240 DOI: 10.1182/bloodadvances.2022007458] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/02/2022] [Revised: 07/21/2022] [Accepted: 07/21/2022] [Indexed: 12/30/2022] Open
Abstract
Many people with hemophilia A (PwHA) undergo surgery in their lifetime, often because of complications of their disease. Emicizumab is the first bispecific monoclonal antibody prophylactic therapy for PwHA, and its efficacy and safety have been previously demonstrated; however, there is a need to build an evidence base on the management of PwHA on emicizumab undergoing surgery. Data from the HAVEN 1-4 phase 3 clinical trials were pooled to provide a summary of all minor and major surgeries in PwHA with or without factor VIII (FVIII) inhibitors who were receiving emicizumab prophylaxis. Overall, 233 surgeries were carried out during the HAVEN 1-4 trials: 215 minor surgeries (including minor dental and joint procedures, central venous access device placement or removal, and endoscopies) in 115 PwHA (64 with FVIII inhibitors) and 18 major surgeries (including arthroplasty and synovectomy) in 18 PwHA (10 with FVIII inhibitors). Perioperative hemostatic support was at the discretion of the treating physician. Overall, the median (interquartile range [IQR]) age was 33.5 (13.0-49.0) years and the median (IQR) emicizumab exposure time before surgery was 278.0 (177.0-431.0) days. Among the 215 minor surgeries, 141 (65.6%) were managed without additional prophylactic factor concentrate, and of those, 121 (85.8%) were not associated with a postoperative bleed. The majority (15 of 18 [83.3%]) of major surgeries were managed with additional prophylactic factor concentrate. Twelve (80.0%) of these 15 surgeries were associated with no intraoperative or postoperative bleeds. The data demonstrate that minor and major surgeries can be performed safely in PwHA receiving emicizumab prophylaxis. These trials are registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as #NCT02622321, #NCT02795767, #NCT02847637, and #NCT03020160.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Persons with hemophilia (PWH) are at risk for chronic hemophilic arthropathy (HA). Joint replacement surgery may be used to relieve intractable pain and/or restore joint function. OBJECTIVES This multicenter, prospective, observational cohort study evaluated the rate of bleeding during the postoperative period after total hip (THA) or knee arthroplasty (TKA). PATIENTS/METHODS We included PWH of any severity ≥18 years of age who were undergoing THA or TKA. Clinical decisions were made at the discretion of the treating physician according to local standards of care. Clinical data were prospectively recorded. Major bleeding was defined as bleeding in a critical site, bleeding that resulted in either a 2 g/dl or greater decrease in hemoglobin during any 24-h period, or transfusion of two or more units of packed red blood cells. RESULTS One hundred thirty-one procedures (98 TKA and 33 THA) were performed, 39 (29.8%) of which were complicated by major bleeding, including 46% of THA and 25% of TKA. The risk of major bleeding was increased in THA compared to TKA (OR 2.50, p = .05), and by the presence of an inhibitor (OR 4.29, p = .04), increased BMI (OR 4.49 and 6.09 for overweight and obese, respectively, compared to normal BMI, each p < .01), and non-use of an antifibrinolytic medication (OR 3.00, p = .03). Neither continuous clotting factor infusion (versus bolus infusion) nor pharmacologic thromboprophylaxis were associated with bleeding risk. CONCLUSIONS The bleeding risk remains substantial after THA and TKA in PWH, despite factor replacement. Use of antifibrinolytic medications is associated with decreased risk.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Surgical procedures in persons with haemophilia A or B with inhibitors (PwHABI) require the use of bypassing agents (BPA) and carry a high risk of complications. Historically, only two BPAs have been available; these are reported to have variable responses. AIM To prospectively evaluate the efficacy and safety of a new bypassing agent, human recombinant factor VIIa (eptacog beta) in elective surgical procedures in PwHABI in a phase 3 clinical trial, PERSEPT 3. METHODS Subjects were administered 200 µg/kg (major procedures) or 75 µg/kg eptacog beta (minor procedures) immediately prior to the initial surgical incision; subsequent 75 µg/kg doses were administered to achieve postoperative haemostasis and wound healing. Efficacy was assessed on a 4-point haemostatic scale during the intra- and postoperative periods. Anti-drug antibodies, thrombotic events and changes in clinical/laboratory parameters were monitored throughout the perioperative period. RESULTS Twelve subjects underwent six major and six minor procedures. The primary efficacy endpoint success proportion was 100% (95% CI: 47.8%-100%) for minor procedures and 66.7% (95% CI: 22.3%-95.7%) for major procedures; 81.8% (95% CI: 48.2%-97.7%) of the procedures were considered successful using eptacog beta. There was one death due to bleeding from a nonsurgical site; this was assessed as unlikely related to eptacog beta. No thrombotic events or anti-eptacog beta antibodies were reported. CONCLUSION Two eptacog beta dosing regimens in PwHABI undergoing major and minor surgical procedures were well-tolerated, and the majority of procedures were successful based on surgeon/investigator assessments. Eptacog beta offers clinicians a new potential therapeutic option for procedures in PwHABI.

Abstract
Haemophilia is the most common X-linked bleeding disorder, affecting over 1 million individuals throughout the world. Patients are subclassified into mild, moderate and severe disease based on per cent factor activity level. Nearly, all patients with haemophilia develop haemophilic arthropathy (HA) by age 30 and HA is known to have a negative impact on physical health subscores in Haem-A-QOL, a validated quality of life scoring system for patients with haemophilia. Unfortunately, many patients progress to end-stage HA of the ankle, which is characterized by pain, contractures, decreased range of motion and muscle atrophy. Ankle arthrodesis (AAD) has been the standard of care in the definitive surgical management of end-stage HA of the ankle. While AAD is a safe surgical procedure known to improve HA-related pain, it decreases functional mobility and has been associated with secondary hindfoot arthritis as well as subtalar degeneration. In recent years, total ankle replacement (TAR) has emerged as an alternative surgical procedure that strives to improve functional mobility, pain and quality of life in end-stage HA of the ankle. However, the safety, durability, and efficacy of this procedure in these patients are unknown. In this review, we analyse the clinical studies investigating TAR in patients with end-stage HA of the ankle. We also discuss important considerations in the perioperative management of patients with haemophilia and compare the risks and benefits of AAD and TAR for patients with end-stage HA of the ankle.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) can improve knee function in the general population, but challenges arise for TKA use in haemophilic patients (HPs). AIM This study aimed to evaluate the midterm clinical experience of a single medical centre in TKA in HPs. METHODS We performed a case series of consecutive TKAs from 2007 to 2013 in HPs. All patients received coagulation factor supplementation according to the institutional protocol. Surgery was performed without a tourniquet by a standard midline medial parapatellar approach. We compared the range of motion (ROM) and flexion contracture before surgery and 1-year postoperative using paired Wilcoxon-non-parametric test (P < .05 was considered significant). The need for revision surgery was considered TKA survival failure. RESULTS Forty-one HP/60 TKAs were reviewed (19 cases were bilateral). Preoperative median ROM and flexion contracture was 75° (range, 0°-95°) and 20° (range, 5°-80°), respectively. The postoperative median ROM increased to 83° (range, 45°-110°), and median flexion contracture decrease to 0° (range, 0°-40°) a statistically significant difference (P < .01). Postoperative median clinical Knee Society Score (KSS) and functional KSS were 88 (range, 59-97) and 100 (range, 30-100), respectively. Six patients required revision (6.66%) due to infection. TKA survival at 5 years was 92% (range, 82%-96%). CONCLUSION This study supports that TKA improves function and ROM in haemophilic knee arthropathy. The protocol of coagulation factors used in this cohort is valid as no related complications were reported. A higher incidence of complications, especially infections, must be expected compared with a TKA in non-HPs.

Abstract
Objectives This study estimated the cost of prophylaxis with activated prothrombin complex concentrate (aPCC) and recombinant activated factor VIIa (rFVIIa) in surgical patients with haemophilia A and inhibitors in Spain. Methods A decision‐analytic model was developed to estimate the cost to the Spanish National Health System of providing haemostatic coverage in this haemophilia population, with age distribution and average weight derived from the literature, and the annual number of surgeries (0.33 per patient) from local data. Drug costs were calculated from official ex‐factory prices with a 7.5% mandatory deduction and recommended dosing regimens. Results The estimated average costs per patient were €10 100.73 (aPCC) and €14 265.89 (rFVIIa) for dental extraction, €24 043.88 (aPCC) and €62 301.08 (rFVIIa) for minor surgery and €126 595.81 (aPCC) and €347 731.09 (rFVIIa) for major surgery. Assuming an estimated 23 annual surgeries in this population (N = 69), distributed as 19% dental extraction, 50% minor surgery and 31% major surgery, the total annual cost of prophylaxis was €1 209 682.35 with aPCC and €3 221 929.28 with rFVIIa. Conclusions aPCC costs were 62.5% lower than rFVIIa. Assuming potential clinical equivalence, aPCC is a potentially cost‐saving option for surgical patients with haemophilia A and inhibitors.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Recombinant FVIIa (rFVIIa) is widely used to manage bleeding risk during and after surgery in patients with haemophilia complicated by inhibitors. In the postoperative period, rFVIIa must be delivered frequently and regularly to maintain haemostasis, considering its short half-life. Preparation and manual administration of bolus doses of rFVIIa at regular intervals may place a strain on available nursing resources. A programmable mini-pump may offer an approach to facilitate regular administration of bolus doses of rFVIIa at specified intervals. AIM To investigate if a mini-pump is a practical and effective way to deliver rFVIIa in the postoperative period. METHODS It was first necessary to establish that rFVIIa remains stable and sterile in the mini-pump reservoir for an extended period. Four days after loading the mini-pump under sterile conditions no evidence of bacterial or fungal growth was observed and in vitro procoagulant activity of rFVIIa remained stable. The mini-pump was used to deliver rFVIIa as bolus doses to two patients with inhibitors who had undergone surgery. Nurses were asked to report their satisfaction with the use of the mini-pump using a specific questionnaire. RESULTS Haemostasis was evaluated as excellent in both cases; nurses were satisfied with use of the mini-pump. CONCLUSION This pilot study shows that intermittent delivery of rFVIIa at fixed intervals using an automated mini-pump offers accurate and reliable administration in the postoperative setting. This approach may reduce burden on nursing staff, potentially minimize the risk of human error and avoid delay in administration of rFVIIa.

Abstract
Planning and undertaking elective surgery in people with haemophilia (PWH) is most effective with the involvement of a specialist and experienced multidisciplinary team (MDT) at a haemophilia treatment centre. However, despite extensive best practice guidelines for surgery in PWH, there may exist a gap between guidelines and practical application. For this consensus review, an expert multidisciplinary panel comprising surgeons, haematologists, nurses, physiotherapists and a dental expert was assembled to develop practical approaches to implement the principles of multidisciplinary management of elective surgery for PWH. Careful preoperative planning is paramount for successful elective surgery, including dental examinations, physical assessment and prehabilitation, laboratory testing and the development of haemostasis and pain management plans. A coordinator may be appointed from the MDT to ensure that critical tasks are performed and milestones met to enable surgery to proceed. At all stages, the patient and their parent/caregiver, where appropriate, should be consulted to ensure that their expectations and functional goals are realistic and can be achieved. The planning phase should ensure that surgery proceeds without incident, but the surgical team should be ready to handle unanticipated events. Similarly, the broader MDT must be made aware of events in surgery that may require postoperative plans to be changed. Postoperative rehabilitation should begin soon after surgery, with attention paid to management of haemostasis and pain. Surgery in patients with inhibitors requires even more careful preparation and should only be undertaken by an MDT experienced in this area, at a specialized haemophilia treatment centre with a comprehensive care model.

The role of recombinant activated factor VII in the haematological management of elective orthopaedic surgery in haemophilia A patients with inhibitors. BLOOD TRANSFUSION = TRASFUSIONE DEL SANGUE 2017; 15:478-486. [PMID: 28686157 DOI: 10.2450/2017.0369-16] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/26/2016] [Accepted: 02/13/2017] [Indexed: 01/19/2023]
Abstract
The clinical profile and expectations of haemophilic patients with inhibitors have changed over the last three decades, mainly because of the prolongation of life-expectancy, often resulting in an increase of the orthopaedic burden. Recombinant activated factor VII (rFVIIa) is the most frequently used bypassing agent in haemophilia patients with inhibitors during elective orthopaedic surgery. For nearly 30 years, rFVIIa has been successfully used to control haemostasis in several major and minor surgical procedures. Clinical trials, case series, reports and surveys were progressively aimed at optimising rFVIIa usage in very demanding conditions managed in highly specialised centres. Recommendations from consensus opinions and guidelines have been provided on the basis of this clinical experience.

Abstract
Adults with hemophilia A (HA), hemophilia B (HB), and von Willebrand disease (VWD) frequently require surgery and invasive procedures. However, there is variability in perioperative management guidelines. We describe our periprocedural outcomes in this setting. A retrospective chart review from January 2006 to December 2012 of patients with HA, HB, and VWD undergoing surgery or invasive procedures was conducted. Type of procedures, management including the use of continuous factor infusion, and administration of antifibrinolytics were reviewed. Adverse outcomes were defined as acute bleeding (<48 hours), delayed bleeding (≥48 hours), transfusion, inhibitor development, and thrombosis. We identified 59 patients with HA and HB. In all, 24 patients had severe hemophilia and 12 had mild/moderate hemophilia. Twelve patients had inhibitors. There were also 5 female carriers of HA and 6 patients with VWD. There were 34 major surgeries (26 orthopedic, 8 nonorthopedic) and 129 minor surgeries. Continuous infusion was used in 55.9% of major surgeries versus 8.5% of minor surgeries. Antifibrinolytics were administered in 14.7% of major surgeries versus 23.2% of minor surgeries. In all, 4 patients developed acute bleeding and 10 patients developed delayed bleeding. Delayed bleeding occurred in 28.6% of genitourinary procedures and in 16.1% of dental procedures. Five patients acquired an inhibitor and 2 had thrombosis. In conclusion, patients with HA, HB, or VWD had similar rates of adverse outcomes when undergoing minor surgeries or major surgeries. This finding underscores the importance of an interdisciplinary management and procedure-specific guidelines for patients with hemophilia and VWD prior to even minor invasive procedures.

Abstract
Invasive procedures for patients with bleeding disorders require planning on the part of the health care team. The patient population affected involves those with hereditary bleeding disorders, such as von Willebrand disease or hemophilia; in addition, patients who use antithrombotic drugs must be considered and their care managed. The choice of treatment depends on a number of factors, including the procedure planned, the type and severity of the disorder, and the age and morbidity of the patient. The indications, dosing, and timing of presurgical and surgical interventions will be reviewed, as well as special considerations for vascular access devices.
