Filter by:Background. The main physical sequela of patients with hemophilia is the development of a progressive, degenerative intra-articular lesion, known as hemophilic arthropathy). This sequela is manifested by chronic pain, limited range of motion, axial abnormalities, and periarticular muscle atrophy. Objective. To assess the safety and effectiveness of an intervention through blood flow restriction, regarding the frequency of bleeding and the improvement in the perception of muscle activation and strength, functionality, joint pain, joint status and the perception of quality of life in patients with hemophilic arthropathy. knee and ankle. Study design. Randomized, multicenter, single-blind clinical study. Method. 20patients with hemophilia A and B will be recruited in this study. Patients will be recruited in 3 regions of Spain. The dependent variables will be: bleeding frequency (self-registration), pain (measured with the visual analog scale), joint status (Hemophilia Joint Health Score scale), strength (dynamometer) and range of motion (goniometer). Three evaluations will be carried out: pre-treatment, post-treatment and after a follow-up period of 4 weeks. Expected results. Observe the safety of blood flow restriction in hemophilia patients. To analyze the efficacy of blood flow restriction in improving muscle strength, joint pain, range of motion, and joint damage in patients with hemophilic knee and ankle arthropathy.
This study will assess the safety and efficacy of multiple-dose of STSP-0601 for the treatment of bleeding episodes in hemophilia A or B patients with inhibitors.
the aim of the SERAPHINE study is to gather data stemming from the French research database BERHLINGO (= Base d'Etude et de Recherche en Hémostase pour Les Investigateurs du Grand-Ouest, i.e. Database for Research on Hemostasis for the Investigators of Western France), in order to get a detailed report about the therapeutic management and use of turoctocog alfa (NovoEight®) in surgery in pwHA (Patient with inherited Hemophilia A).
This study programme aims to examine the real-world experience and impact of gene therapy in a diverse community of people and families affected by haemophilia who have been or will be exposed to gene therapy.
This study aims to investigate the effects of an individually planned exercise program, counseling and family education on the followings in patients with hemophilia (PWH); 1. To examine the joint range of motion, muscle strength and functional status. 2. To evaluate the level of physical activity and daily living activities 3. To aim to determine the amount of change after participation.
Hemophilia is a bleeding disorder and repeated joint bleeding leads to hemophilic arthropathy. Among patients with hemophilia, vitamin D deficiency and hemophilic arthropathy have been associated with osteoporosis in several clinical studies.There is no data on the prevalence of osteoporosis in hemophilia patients in Taiwan or Asia. To the best of our knowledge, no previous studies have reported the prevalence of sarcopenia and correlation with osteoporosis in hemophilia adult patients. This study will investigate the prevalence and corelation of sarcopenia and low BMD in patients with hemophilia. patients in Taiwan. The study will estimate the prevalence of sarcopenia and body composition in the hemophilia population and compared baseline demographic and clinical characteristics between the non-sarcopenia and sarcopenia individuals, with particular emphasis on the overlap with osteoporosis and hemophilic arthropathy.
Hemophilia is a rare hematological disorder characterized by a partial or complete deficiency of clotting factor VIII or IX.Bleeding disorders mainly affect the musculoskeletal system. Intra-articular bleeding is an important complication related to hemophilia and usually occurs in large synovial joints such as knees and ankles. Initially, these bleeds occur non-specific spontaneously and usually affect one joint, and repeated bleeding makes that joint a target joint. Postural balance can be defined as the ability to maintain a stable posture for maximum duration with minimal body sway, or to hold the body centre of gravity (CoG) over its base support in varying conditions (1). Somatosensorial information from mechanoreceptors, visual and vestibular receptors is required to maintain postural balance. Postural balance is tried to be controlled by the postural adjustments provided by the contraction of the lower limb muscles and trunk muscles before perturbation. Spontaneous hemarthrosis is a distinctive feature of severe haemophilia, and that recurrent bleedings may likely to cause postural balance disorders by disrupting proprioceptive inputs from mechanoreceptors in the joint. Data on how bleeding affects postural balance in children with hemophilia is unclear.In the relationship between the clinical evaluation of hemophilia and postural balance, there is little research in the literature.
Uncertainty about how to treat existing hemophilic arthropathy (HA) is the most important issue that will increase functionality and joint health. Recent studies have shown that MT can be used safely for improving joint health, pain and ROM with no bleedings in PwH with elbow and ankle HA. Unlike MT studies in hemophilia, we investigated the effects of MT on important parameters such as muscle strength (MS), functional level, joint health, functional independence score in hemophilia (FISH) and kinesiophobia. These parameters are closely related to functional level and quality of life of PwH. Therefore, evaluation of these parameters and determining the effects of the MT on these parameters are very important for both PwH and also clinicians.
Manual treatment involves techniques based on the principles of moving the joint faces and separating the joint gap, and soft tissues mobilization techniques. The use of manual therapy in hemophilia is gradually increasing although it previously described as a contraindication. The utility and use of strengthening exercises in hemophilia has been going on for a long time. In this study, the effect of manual therapy and strengthening exercises joint was investigated in hemophilic arthropathy of the elbow.
The improvements observed in the care of patients with hemophilia or Willebrand disease have led to an increase in their life expectancy, which today approaches that of the general population. This increase in life expectancy leads in these patients to the development of comorbidities related to aging (cardiovascular and neurological diseases, cancers and kidney diseases) (e.g "Franchini & Mannuccio", BJH, 2009). The care of these comorbidities represents a new challenge for the medical teams. Toward multiple comorbidities, polypharmacy is often associated. Many studies about medication exposure and management in older patients were published but no study was conducted to explore the medication management of older patients with hemophilia or Willebrand disease.
