A nurse is caring for an adolescent who has hemophilia A and is scheduled for wisdom teeth extractions. Prior to the procedure, the nurse should anticipate that the client will receive which of the following products?

The correct answer is B: Recombinant factor VIII. Patients with hemophilia A have a deficiency in factor VIII, a clotting factor. Prior to dental procedures, they may require replacement therapy with recombinant factor VIII to prevent excessive bleeding. Prophylactic antibiotics (Choice A) are not indicated for hemophilia A. Packed red blood cells (Choice C) are used for patients with anemia, not hemophilia. Fresh frozen plasma (Choice D) contains various clotting factors, but recombinant factor VIII is the specific product needed for hemophilia A.
