In hemephilic patient which of the following should not be given_______________?

Correct answer: D. Platelet factor

  • A. Factor VIII concentrate
  • B. Cryoprecipitate
  • C. EACA
  • D. Platelet factor

Explanation

Haemophilia is a coagulation-factor deficiency, so factor VIII concentrate or cryoprecipitate is appropriate in haemophilia A, while platelet products are not routinely useful because platelet function is normal. EACA may be used as an adjunct, particularly for mucosal bleeding.
