Considerations for clinical nurse specialists when planning surgery
|
Diagnosis Clinical phenotype/bleed history The severity of factor levels Pharmacokinetic study Inhibitor status Surgery type (major/minor), bleed risk, anaesthesia Ability to self-infuse Timing of the surgery: 2nd on the list in the morning/1st in the afternoon, beginning/end of the week Which hospital/location: availability of the haematology team Lab onsite: is it equipped to manage levels as required? Inpatient/day case Patient venous access Type of FIX: EHL/SHL |
Frequency of treatment Length of treatment Distance to hospital Ability to self-infuse |
