Study Description

Brief Summary:

This NON INTERVENTIONAL OBSERVATIONAL STUDY is conducted in Europe. The primary aim is to observe the haemostatic efficacy of NovoSeven® treatment during routine practice in German clinics. The observational study observes patients with congenital haemophilia with inhibitors to coagulation factors VIII or IX, acquired haemophilia, congenital FVII deficiency, or Glanzmann's thrombasthenia who have received at least one dose of NovoSeven® for treatment of a bleeding episode or for the prevention of a bleeding when undergoing surgery or an invasive procedure.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures :

Proportion of acute bleeding episodes for which haemostasis (defined as stop or significant reduction of bleeding) will be achieved [ Time Frame: within 9 hours after initiation of treatment with NovoSeven® or of invasive procedures for which haemostasis will be maintained during the time period of haemostatic coverage with NovoSeven® ]

Secondary Outcome Measures :

Time proportion of acute bleeding treatments resulting in effective pain relief [ Time Frame: within 9 hours after initiation of treatment with NovoSeven® ]
Proportion of patients experiencing one or more re-bleeds [ Time Frame: within 24 hours after begin of an acute bleeding episode that was successfully treated with NovoSeven® (stop or significant reduction of bleeding) ]
