    Summary: "Cryoprecipitate is still transfused although its genuine indications are specific and therefore, limited. Its accidental, yet fortuitous discovery by Dr. Judith Pool, and its clinical effectiveness subsequently established by Dr. Ed. Hershgold, enabled cryoprecipitate to quickly become the standard therapy for patients worldwide afflicted with hemophilia. However, its usage has declined since monoclonal factor VIII has emerged as the new standard of therapy primarily because of its lack of viral infectivity. Our expreience indicates it is frequently not transfused appropriately."--leaf 2.

    Group A beta-hemolytic streptococcal pharyngitis is an extremely common problem for the family physician. Clinical signs are not reliable in making the diagnosis. Infections with few or no symptoms are common. Throat culture is the best aid to diagnosis. One-quarter or more of family contacts harbor the organism. Good mamagement includes accurate bacteriologic diagnosis, adequate use of the appropriate penicillin preparation, repeat cultures, treatment of family members, if indicated, and recognition of the chronic carrier state.
