Factor VII Deficiency and Sepsis in Pregnancy Treated with Recombinant Factor VIIa
Journal Title: Enliven: Journal of Anesthesiology and Critical Care Medicine - Year 2015, Vol 2, Issue 4
Abstract
Inherited factor VII deficiency is a rare autosomal recessive coagulation disorder, classified as type 1 or type 2 depending on the absence or presence of factor VII antigen in plasma. There are only few published case reports in the literature guiding management of factor VII deficiency specifically in obstetric patients. We would like to report anaesthetic management of a factor VII deficiency during pregnancy, which was complicated by sepsis.
