ABSTRACT
Objective: To describe outcome of patients with severe obstetric hemorrhage (≥
1000 mL) treated with rFVIIa as part of the management and to detect complications
related to its use.
Materials and Methods: Retrospective, cross-sectional and descriptive study
carried out in patients with severe obstetric hemorrhage treated at the Hospital Civil de
Guadalajara Dr. Juan I Menchaca between 2001 and 2017 and treated with activated
recombinant factor VII. We identified relevant antecedents, average dose and number
of doses of rFVIIa, and hemostatic response. We determined if quantity of bleeding,
administration of blood products and hematological parameters before and after using
rFVIIa was significantly different.
Results: We identified ten patients with rFVIIa administration. The cause of severe
obstetric hemorrhage was uterine atony in six cases. The average dose of rFVIIa was
91 mcg/kg; one dose was administered in eight patients and two doses in two patients.
Hemostasis was achieved in all patients, bleeding decreased significantly after ad-
ministration of rFVIIa (5075 mL
vs 928 mL, p = 0.000) and the number of erythrocyte
concentrates required (7
vs 3, p = 0.006). One patient did not require a hysterectomy
after rFVIIa administration; one patient presented pulmonary thromboembolism and
recovered without complications, no patient died.
Conclusion: rFVIIa administration as a hemostatic in severe obstetric hemorrhage
had favorable results, preventing hysterectomy in one patient. Follow-up requires close
monitoring of thrombosis.
