  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Number of patients with grade III/IV allergic reaction to defibrotide [30 days]

      All patients will be monitored for allergic reaction probably or definitely related to defibrotide administration.

    2. Number of patients with grade III/IV hemorrhage [30 days]

      All patients will be monitored for hemorrhage probably or definitely related to defibrotide.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Number of patients with improvement in clinical signs of Acute Chest Syndrome [30 days]

      Patients will have pre and post treatment assessments with imaging and blood tests to monitor clinical signs of ACS
