Adverse events with missing treatment associations were classified as related to treatment.
Defined as events that were related to study treatment according to the investigator.
One additional death in the 4F-PCC group occurred after study day 45 (day 48; worsening of cardiopulmonary disease).
Thromboembolic adverse events included: six patients (seven events§) in the 4F-PCC group (deep-vein thrombosis [two events], thrombosis, ischaemic stroke [two events], vena cava filter insertion, and catheter-related complication) and seven patients (seven events) in the plasma group (acute myocardial infarction [two events], deep-vein thrombosis, ischaemic stroke [two events], pulmonary embolism, and transient ischaemic attack).
One deep-vein thrombosis and one stroke occurred in the same patient. 4F-PCC=four-factor prothrombin complex concentrate. ITT-S=intention-to-treat safety.
