[Prophylactic replacement therapy of hemophilia].
Medical care of patients with hemophilia A and B involves regular ambulatory check-ups and contemporary replacement therapy. The Institute of Pediatrics in Lódź--as other medical centres in several countries--prophylactically treats some hemophilic patients, usually once per 7-10 days, with infusions of absent coagulation factor. Such treatment was carried out in 10 boys with severe hemophilia A and B with marked clinical symptoms. An analysis of health prior to and during prophylactic therapy was carried out. Such an analysis has shown that such a treatment is beneficial due to the shortening of hospitalization, change in the character of hemorrhage and possibility of rehabilitation free from the risk of complications.
