Specialised 'bypass' therapies such as FEIBA or Novoseven have been developed, and require highly specialised input as they are extremely expensive, and may not be effective if given incorrectly.
If bleeding is severe, the patient is provided normal coagulation factors in frozen plasma, prothrombin complex concentrates such as Proplex, or activated factor VII, NovoSeven.
NovoSeven was licensed in 1999 for use to stem bleeding in haemophiliacs but is still undergoing trials for use on trauma patients with severe wounds.
