Treatment studies in haemophilia focus on joint bleeds; however, some 10-25% of bleeds occur in muscles. This review addresses management of muscle haematoma in severe haemophilia, defines gaps in the published evidence, and presents a combined clinician and physiotherapist perspective of treatment modalities. The following grade 2C recommendations were synthesized: (i) Sport and activity should be based on individual factor levels, bleeding history and physical characteristics, (ii) Musculoskeletal review aids the management of children and adults, (iii) 'Time to full recovery' should be realistic and based on known timelines from the healthy population, (iv) Diagnosis should be carried out by both a clinician and physiotherapist, (v) Severe muscle bleeds should be treated similarly to surgical patients: a 50% trough for 10-14 days followed by high-level prophylaxis, (vi) Protection, rest, ice, compression and elevation should be implemented in the acute stage, and (vii) Physiotherapy and rehabilitation should be divided into: control of haemorrhage (phase 1); restoration of Range of Movement (ROM) and strength (phase 2); functional rehabilitation and return to normal living (phase 3). Recommendations specifically for inhibitor patients include: (i) Minor to moderate bleeds should be managed by home-treatment within 1 h of bleed onset using either one injection of rFVIIa 270 μg kg(-1), or two to three injections of rFVIIa 90 μg kg(-1) (2-3 h intervals), or FEIBA 50-100 U kg(-1) (repeated at 12-hourly intervals, if necessary) and (ii) Severe muscle bleeds should be supervised by the treatment centre and include bypassing agents until clinical improvement is observed. 相似文献
The Australian Clinical Guidelines for Stroke Management 2010 represents an update of the Clinical Guidelines for Stroke Rehabilitation and Recovery (2005) and the Clinical Guidelines for Acute Stroke Management (2007). For the first time, they cover the whole spectrum of stroke, from public awareness and prehospital response to stroke unit and stroke management strategies, acute treatment, secondary prevention, rehabilitation and community care. The guidelines also include recommendations on transient ischaemic attack. The most significant changes to previous guideline recommendations include the extension of the stroke thrombolysis window from 3 to 4.5 h and the change from positive to negative recommendations for the use of thigh-length antithrombotic stockings for deep venous thrombosis prevention and the routine use of prolonged positioning for contracture management. 相似文献
