Description
Prothrombin complex is a double virus–inactivated concentrate, containing equal concentrations of Factors II, VIII, IX, X and Heparin.
Introduction
Prothrombin Complex Concentrate (PCC) is a combination of several blood clotting factors II, VII, IX and X. PCC is used in the treatment of the congenital bleeding disorders associated with Factors II, VII, IX, and X deficiencies. PCC reverses the effect of warfarin (a coumarin anti-coagulant) and is used in cases of significant bleeding in patients with a coagulopathy, for example, gastrointestinal haemorrhage or intracranial haemorrhage. The PCC is also extensively used in treating acquired coagulation abnormalities secondary to vitamin K deficiency, warfarin ingestion, and various types of liver disease. Hepatitis, anaphylaxis and thrombosis have been reported as complications of prothrombin complex concentrates administration.
Synonyms
PCC, Prothrombin Complex.
