Article Synopsis
- The study analyzes the effectiveness and safety of recombinant human factor VIIa (rFVIIa) combined with high-dose steroids for treating alveolar hemorrhage (AH) after stem cell transplantation.
- Approximately 57 episodes of AH were studied, showing no significant differences in mortality rates or recovery times between treatments with rFVIIa plus steroids and steroids alone.
- The findings suggest that existing clinical factors, like severe infections and organ failure, are more crucial to patient outcomes than the addition of rFVIIa for hemostasis.
