Table 9.

Coagulation factor and pro-hemostatic agents.

Concentrate of factors (II, (VII), IX et X): prothrombin complex concentrate, PCC, PPSB (Cofact, Confidex, Octaplex, Beriplex) 25 U/kg, once or two times*

Concentrate of activated factors: idem PCC + VIIa, FEIBA, (FEIBA) 50 IE/kg, max 200 IE/kg/day*

Factor VIIa: (Novoseven) Needs further evaluation: 90 μg/kg

Antifibrinolytics (Tranexamic acid (Exacyl), Aminocaproïc acid), Desmopressin (Minirin) No clinical data in this context

Fresh Frozen Plasma (FFP) Not useful to reverse anticoagulation, expand plasma volume in case of massive transfusion

Protamin, vitamin K No effect in case of NOACs bleeding

*PCC or aPCC utilization is based of few experimental data, can be considered if immediate hemostatic support is essential in case of life-threating bleeding (need for ≥4 red cells transfusions and exogenous cathecolamins for hemodynamic stabilization).
