Abstract
Introduction
Patients with von Willebrand disease (VWD) require administration of von Willebrand factor (VWF) concentrates peri-operatively. Concerns about FVIII accumulation after repetitive injections of a 1:1 ratio VWF/FVIII clotting factor concentrate (CFC) led this study to explore the recovery and FVIII accumulation over time.
Methods
This monocentre study examined patients with VWD receiving perioperative 1:1 ratio CFC infusions. CFC dosing was based on body weight and endogenous VWF/FVIII activity. FVIII and VWF activity was monitored at T0 (baseline), T1 (15 min postinfusion), and trough levels at T2-T6 (24-120 h).
Results
We included 125 patients, undergoing 125 procedures (63 major surgeries, 62 minor), with a median of two CFC infusions (IQR 1–3). With a mean administered dose of 35.7 IU/kg CFC, recovery rates of FVIII and VWF were 2.6 IU/dL per IU/kg and 2.4 IU/dL per IU/kg, respectively. Mean FVIII levels at T0 were 62 (SD 51.9), T1: 164 (SD 80.4), T2: 155 (SD 62.8), T3: 162 (SD 59.8), T4: 124 (SD 78.4), and T5: 120 (SD 65.3) IU/dL. Mean VWF activity levels at T0 were 29 (SD 25.0), T1: 133 (SD 43.7), T2: 92 (SD 37.2), and T3: 86 (SD 37.5) IU/dL. Subgroup analysis in 47 patients with more than three infusions, showed no accumulation of mean FVIII levels.
Conclusion
This perioperative study demonstrated excellent FVIII and VWF recovery of a 1:1 ratio VWF product in patients with VWD. Stable FVIII and VWF activity levels were observed after repeated infusions, without accumulation. Most major surgeries required only three CFC infusions.
