  • Title: Issues in pediatric haemophilia care.
    Author: Giordano P, Franchini M, Lassandro G, Faienza MF, Valente R, Molinari AC.
    Journal: Ital J Pediatr; 2013 Apr 20; 39():24. PubMed ID: 23601343.
    Abstract:
    The hemophilias are the most common X-linked inherited bleeding disorders. The challenges in children are different from that in adults and, If not properly managed, can lead to chronic disease and lifelong disabilities. Currently, inhibitors are the most severe complication and prophylaxis is emerging as the optimal preventive care strategy. Quality of life has become in the western countries the primary objective of the process of providing care, thus all the strategies (psychotherapy, physiotherapy, community life), not just the infusion of the missing factor, should be activated for the patient and family to give them the perception of being healthy.
