The most common type of hemophilia is factor VIII deficiency, or hemophilia A. The second most common type is factor IX deficiency or hemophilia B. When a person with hemophilia is injured, he does not bleed harder or faster than normal, but will have prolonged bleeding because he cannot make a firm clot. Small cuts on the skin are usually not a problem, but bleeding in any deeper area can be prolonged. Some bleeding episodes occur as a result of injury, but many occur seemingly without cause.

110. Hemophilia hemophilia is a rare genetic bleeding disorder that prevents the blood from clotting properly. About one in every 8000 boys is born with hemophilia. http://www.utoronto.ca/kids/Hemophilia.htm

Hemophilia by Dr. Saul Greenberg What is it? Hemophilia is a rare genetic bleeding disorder that prevents the blood from clotting properly. About one in every 8,000 boys is born with hemophilia. It is inherited as an X-linked disorder which means an affected male cannot pass the gene for hemophilia to his sons, but his daughters will be carriers of the disease gene. Every female who carries the gene for hemophilia has about a one in four chance of having a child who has hemophilia. Human blood contains special proteins, known as clotting factors , which help stop bleeding. People with hemophilia are deficient in one of those factors, either factor VIII or IX and as a result, their blood cannot clot properly. Hemophilia A , also known as factor VIII deficiency, is the cause of about 80% of cases. Hemophilia B, which comprises the majority of the remaining 20%, is a deficiency of factor IX. Patients are classified as mild, moderate, or severe, based on the amount of factor present in the blood. What does is look like? A patient with hemophilia may only bleed occasionally, whereas another patient with a milder form may bleed more often. About 30% of infant males with hemophilia bleed excessively with circumcision and 1% to 2% of newborns with hemophilia may have an intracranial hemorrhage (bleeding within the skull). Once babies with hemophilia begin crawling and cruising, parents may notice raised bruises on the stomach, chest, buttocks, and back. The most common type of bleeding in hemophilia involves muscles and joints. A child with hemophilia will usually refuse to move the affected joint or muscle because of pain and swelling. Recurrent joint bleeding can also lead to chronic damage. Other signs may be prolonged nosebleeds, excessive bleeding following a tooth extraction or surgery, blood in the urine, or heavy menstrual periods in adolescents.

related terms: hemophilia A (factor VIII deficiency), hemophilia B (factor IX deficiency, Christmas disease) What is hemophilia? Hemophilia is a bleeding disorder of varying severity that is due to a deficiency in specific clotting factors. Normally the body responds to an injury that causes bleeding through a complex defence system. This consists of local changes in the damaged blood vessels, activation of blood cells called platelets, and the coagulation (clotting) process. Most inherited bleeding disorders are the result of abnormal platelet function or a deficiency in one or more of the factors involved in the blood clotting system. Hemophilia is the most common inherited coagulation factor deficiency. Hemophilia A is a result of a deficiency of factor VIII, and hemophilia B of factor IX. Hemophilia A is more common than hemophilia B, and varies in severity depending on the level of factor VIII activity. Hemophilia B is often a severe bleeding disorder. How is hemophilia inherited?

Albany Medical Center ALBANY REGIONAL HEMOPHILIA AND vonWILLEBRAND'S TREATMENT CENTER at Albany Medical Center Hospital Providing comprehensive health care for patients with mild to severe Hemophilia A, Hemophilia B, von Willebrand's disease and Thrombophilia in the Albany, New York region. What is Hemophilia? Hemophilia is a hereditary clotting disorder. It occurs when a male individual lacks one of the blood proteins needed to clot blood. The only way to correct the effects of hemophilia is to infuse the missing clotting factor or to use DDAVP. Women, although carriers of the Hemophilia gene, do not generally exhibit symptoms of Hemophilia. Hemophilia A (factor VIII deficiency), hemophilia B (factor IX deficiency) and other factor deficiencies are all coagulation (clotting) disorders. They are treated with a variety of products that enable a person with hemophilia to lead a very normal life. What is vonWillebrand's Disease? Also a heredity clotting disorder. Both men and women may have this diagnosis, some more seriously than others. Generally, the patient lacks what is known as the vonWillebrand protein, which causes varying degrees of blood loss, usually in and around mucus membranessuch as frequent nosebleeds, heavy uterine bleeding, and extended bleeding after surgeries or dental work. Medications are also available to treat this disorder and patients lead a normal life. What is "Comprehensive" Care?

Hematology and Blood Disorders Hemophilia What is hemophilia? Hemophilia is an inherited bleeding, or coagulation, disorder. Children with hemophilia lack the ability to stop bleeding because of the low levels, or complete absence, of specific proteins, called "factors," in their blood that are necessary for clotting. Proper clotting of blood helps prevent excessive bleeding. In the US, there are about 20,000 people with hemophilia. Each year, approximately 400 babies are born with the disorder. What are the different types of hemophilia? There are many factors in the blood that are involved in the function of forming clots to stop bleeding. A child with hemophilia is missing, or has a low supply of, one of the factors needed in order for the blood to clot. Two factors that affect blood clotting are factor VIII and factor IX. Hemophilia is classified by its level of severity. Hemophilia may be mild, moderate, or severe, depending upon the level of the blood clotting factors in the blood. The three main forms of hemophilia include the following: hemophilia A - caused by a lack of the blood clotting factor VIII; approximately 85 percent of hemophiliacs have type A disease.
