My patient has hemophilia with a factor VIII assay showing activity at 19.5 before surgery how much cryoprecipitate should we give to manage bleeding risks during the procedure
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
For a hemophilia patient with Factor VIII activity at 19.5%, you'd typically give cryoprecipitate to raise levels above 50% pre-surgery. The exact amount depends on weight and procedure type, so consult a hematologist for dosing protocol.

I've been dealing with hair loss since I was 23 and recently discovered it's due to hypothyroidism. I'm currently getting homeopathy treatment, which has helped a bit, but the hair loss won't stop. I don't have PCOD, PCOS, scalp issues, or dandruff, so those aren't the problems. My doctor mentioned it could be an iron deficiency, so I started some meds they suggested. My hemoglobin went up, but my serum ferritin is still pretty lowit's been stuck around 16 to 24 over the past year, even with me eating red meat and other iron-rich foods. It's frustrating because Im getting married soon and don't want this stress hanging over me. Any idea who I should see about getting my serum ferritin levels up? Your advice would mean a lot.
