title: Activated F IX concentrate (FEIBA) used in the treatment of haemophilic patients with antibody to F VIII.
abstract: Bleeding episodes in five haemophiliacs with antibody to F VIII were treated by activated F IX concentrate (FEIBA). Relief of pain and haemostasis in affected muscles and joints were recorded in each case. One patient developed a mild attack of disseminated intravascular coagulation with an uneventful recovery. A substantial rise in natural inhibitors of coagulation was seen in two patients, and all but one experienced a rise in F VIII antibody titer.
