TREATMENT OF SEPSIS BY LOW DOSE ADMINISTRATION OF TISSUE FACTOR PATHWAY INHIBITOR (TFPI)

摘要

Methods for prophylactically or therapeutically treating severe pneumonia involve administration of tissue factor pathway inhibitor (TFPI) or a TFPI analog to patients suffering from or at risk of developing this condition. The methods involve the use of continuous intravenous infusion of TFPI or a TFPI analog, preferably at low doses to avoid adverse side effects.
