  2. 1. Factor V Leiden mutation and pregnancy. Haemostasis during pregnancy in non-carriers and carriers of factor V Leiden mutation, with special emphasis on placenta-mediated and venous thromboembolic complications and on blood coagulation and fibrinolysis markers for prediction of complications

    Keywords : Activated protein C; D-dimer; Factor V Leiden; fibrinolysis; haemostasis; obstetric complications; platelet function; pregnancy; prothrombin fragment 1 2; soluble fibrin; Sonoclot; thrombosis;

    Abstract : Factor V Leiden (FVL) mutation elevates the risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in general. During pregnancy, the haemostatic balance is changed in the direction of hypercoagulability, resulting in an increased incidence of VTE. 42 women were followed longitudinally during pregnancy and the puerperium.

    Author : Gustav Ekbäck; Anders Bengtsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : Allogeneic blood transfusion, although often needed in major surgery with large per-and postoperative bleeding, is fraught with dangers such as clerical mishandling, immunosuppression and blood-borne infections. It is therefore important to find ways to avoid allogeneic blood transfusion by means of less bleeding, better tolerance of the bleeding or alternatives to allogeneic blood. READ MORE

    Abstract : Bleeding complications range from 0.5 to 1.6% in connection with central venous catheter insertions but are more frequent in patients with bone marrow failure and severe thrombocytopenia. Although supportive evidence is scarce, prophylactic platelet transfusion is sometimes performed in these patients before catheter insertion. READ MORE
