Popis: Objectives: To report the perioperative management experience of central venous access devices (CVAD) in Chinese children with severe hemophilia A (SHA) in China. Methods: This retrospective study included SHA children who underwent Port-A-Cath or peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) implantation between 2020/01 and 2021/07. Collected data included baseline characteristics, factor replacement regimen and CVAD-related complications. Results: Nine patients had nine ports placed, and eight patients underwent 10 PICCs placement. Patients without or with low-titer inhibitor (10 BU) received PICC. The median recombinant factor VIIa (rFVIIa) dose was 87.47 μg/kg before and for 5–7 doses after implantation over 2–3 days. The median PICC duration was 226.5 days, with infection incidence of 0.12 per 1000 catheter-days. Conclusions: CVADs can be safely implanted in China. PICC implantation is a practical and safe option for SHA children with high-titer inhibitors.
