When is 4 Factor PCC used in Toxicological Emergencies?
4 Factor PCC is used in various toxicological emergencies, including major bleeding events and urgent surgical interventions where patients are under anticoagulant therapy. It is particularly valuable in situations where vitamin K administration alone would be too slow to reverse anticoagulation effects. For example, in cases of intracranial hemorrhage or gastrointestinal bleeding, the rapid action of 4 Factor PCC is crucial for patient survival.
