Treatment of hemophilia


Abstract  
Treatment of hemophilia is determined by how severe the disease is. Because hemophilia is a genetic disease, treatment often begins at birth. Hemophilia is primarily treated by replacing the absent or abnormal clotting factors to prevent severe blood loss and complications from bleeding. Children and adults with mild hemophilia may not need clotting factor replacement, except before medical or dental procedures or following an injury. For more severe hemophilia, clotting factor replacement can be given intravenously. A child as young as 10 can learn to self-administer the replacement can be given intravenously .Clotting factors are replaced by injecting (infusing) clotting factor replacement into the veins. The severity of hemophilia determines how clotting factors are replaced.Severe forms of hemophilia: Clotting factors may be replaced on a regularly scheduled basis (prophylaxis) to prevent bleeding, or on demand in response to symptoms of a bleeding episode or before an activity that may cause bleeding.
The procedure to be used depends on the severity of the disease
