Haemophilia From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. (Redirected from Hemophilia Haemophilia Haemophilia or hemophilia is the name of any of several hereditary genetic illnesses that impair the body's ability to control bleeding . Genetic deficiencies (or, very rarely, an autoimmune disorder ) cause lowered plasma clotting factor activity so as to compromise blood-clotting; when a blood vessel is injured, a scab will not form and the vessel can continue to bleed excessively for a very long period of time. The bleeding can be external , if the skin is broken by a scrape, cut or abrasion, or it can be internal , into muscles, joints or hollow organs. It might therefore presents visibly as skin bruises, or subtlely as melena, hematuria, or bleeding in the brain.

AHF, Inc. E-MAIL: info@ahfinfo.com AHF, Inc. has earned the Joint Commission's Gold Seal of Approval™ AHF® Inc. Privacy Policy WHAT IS HEMOPHILIA? This special genetic code, passed to an unborn child, is supposed to signal a series of steps that help control bleeding by clotting. The steps needed to form a clot depend upon a series of proteins called factors. This error in genetic code means that some of the factors are missing or that they are not working correctly in a person with hemophilia. This causes people with hemophilia to bleed longer but not faster. Surface bleeds, on the outside of the body, are fairly easy to stop, even for people with hemophilia. Internal bleeding, such as bleeding into joints or muscles, can mean that it is only possible for a clot to form after the person has taken medication called clotting factor. More than 15,000 people have hemophilia A or hemophilia B in the United States. There are other bleeding disorders where one or more of the clotting factors is missing. People with hemophilia A are missing factor VIII and those with hemophilia B are missing factor IX, others may be missing factors I, II, VII, etc. There are also other bleeding disorders. The most common of which is von Willebrand disease, and many more people have von Willebrand disease than have hemophilia. Individuals with bleeding disorders can be missing a little, a lot, or almost all of that particular factor needed to form clots and stop bleeding. These are called mild, moderate, and severe levels of disorder. The level of severity will predict how often a person will develop a bleed, how difficult it will be for them to form a clot, and how much clotting medication they will need in order to form a clot.

Providing education, research and advocacy on behalf of people with bleeding disorders. Hemophilia is an hereditary illness that affects 1 out of every 7,500 males from birth. Although women rarely have hemophilia, they play a role in that they carry the defective gene that causes it. A similar disorder, von Willebrand disease, affects 1-2% of the population, affecting men and women equally. These disorders result in spontaneous and prolonged bleeding due to the lack of clotting factors in the blood. They are chronic, often debilitating, disorders for which there is no cure.

Hemophilia is an inherited, life-long bleeding disorder. Without appropriate treatment, hemophiliacs suffer from spontaneous bleeding which can cause pain, crippling disability and death. The friends of the Iranian Hemophilia Society was founded in 2001 with the aim of providing financial assistance to the Iranian Hemophilia Centre, a non-governmental, non-profit organisation inaugurated in Tehran in April of the same year. The Centre aims to: Diagnose and treat patients suffering from hemophilia and other inherited bleeding disorders Identify the precise defect by direct DNA analysis, provide carrier detection, and pre-natal diagnosis Provide out-patient care such as physiotherapy, preventive dentistry, rehabilitation and genetic counselling Provide training courses for doctors, nurses, physiotherapists, scientists and technicians throughout Iran and regional countries Introduce computer software to create a national data-base This entire project has been - and will continue to be - funded through the generous donations of people like you.

Search September 9, 2005 Registration Healthcare Professionals You are in: Blood and Lymphatic System Hemophilia Hemophilia Causes Men have only one X chromosome. If that chromosome carries the abnormal hemophilia gene, the man will have the disease hemophilia. Both hemophilia A and B are linked to the X chromosome, which means they primarily affect men. Women have two X chromosomes. Even if one of the X chromosomes carries the defective gene, the normal gene on the other X chromosome will protect the woman from hemophilia. The gene does not affect them, but they carry it and pass it on to their children. A man who has hemophilia has a 50% chance that his daughters will be carriers, although his sons will not be affected if the mother is not a carrier. The transmission of this gene to offspring accounts for 70% of the cases of hemophilia. The remaining 30% occur from spontaneous changes in genes responsible for causing hemophilia.
