ICD D D ICD ... MeSH Haemophilia (also spelled hemophilia in North America , from the Greek haima αἷμα 'blood' and philia φιλος 'love' ) is a group of hereditary genetic disorders that impair the body's ability to control blood clotting or coagulation , which is used to stop bleeding when a blood vessel is broken. Haemophilia A (clotting factor VIII deficiency) is the most common form of the disorder, occurring at about 1 in 5,000–10,000 male births. Haemophilia B factor IX deficiency) occurs at about 1 in about 20,000–34,000 male births. Like most recessive sex-linked X chromosome disorders, haemophilia is more likely to occur in males than females. This is because females have two X chromosomes while males have only one, so the defective gene is guaranteed to manifest in any male who carries it. Because females have two X chromosomes and haemophilia is rare, the chance of a female having two defective copies of the gene is very low, so females are almost exclusively asymptomatic carriers of the disorder. Female carriers can inherit the defective gene from either their mother or father, or it may be a new mutation. Only under rare circumstances do females actually have haemophilia.

Site Map HealthSavvy Sign In Hemophilia Hemophilia is a disorder where the blood does not clot normally. While the blood disorder usually occurs only in males, there are rare exceptions in which a female will have it. Symptoms of hemophilia include bleeding (which may occur internally in joints and muscles) and bruising. Treatment most often involves replacement therapy, in which the clotting factor missing in people with the disease is replaced. Hemophilia Disease What Is Hemophilia? Hemophilia is a rare, inherited bleeding disorder in which the blood does not clot normally. People who have it may bleed for a longer period of time following an injury or accident. People with the disorder may also bleed internally, especially in the joints (such as the knees, ankles, and elbows). Approximately 18,000 people in the United States have hemophilia, and about 400 babies are born each year with this disorder in the U.S. Although it usually occurs only in males, there are very rare exceptions in which a female will have the blood disorder.

DCI Home Blood Diseases Hemophilia : What Is ... What Is ... Other Names Causes Diagnosis ... Links What Is Hemophilia? Hemophilia (heem-o-FILL-ee-ah) is a rare bleeding disorder in which your blood doesn't clot normally. If you have hemophilia, you may bleed for a longer time than others after an injury. You also may bleed internally, especially in your knees, ankles, and elbows. This bleeding can damage your organs or tissues and may be life threatening. Overview Hemophilia usually is inherited. This means that the disorder is passed from parents to children through the genes. People born with hemophilia have little or no clotting factor. Clotting factor is a protein need for normal blood clotting. There are several types of clotting factors. These proteins work with platelets (PLATE-lets) to help the blood clot. When blood vessels are injured, clotting factors help platelets stick together to plug cuts and breaks at the site of the injury and stop bleeding. Without clotting factors, normal blood clotting can't take place. Some people who have hemophilia need injections of a clotting factor or factors to stop bleeding. There are two main types of hemophilia. If you have hemophilia A, you're missing or have low levels of clotting factor VIII (8). About 9 out of 10 people who have hemophilia have type A. If you have hemophilia B, you're missing or have low levels of clotting factor IX (9).

FAMOHIO, Inc. Family Annual Meeting of Hemophiliacs in Ohio FAMOHIO, Inc. 50 West Broad Street Suite 1801 Columbus OH alt: heidi @bakernon profits .com ... Contact Us Home Our History  Six men founded FAMOHIO, Inc. in the spring of 1992. That year, “FAMOHIO” was the acronym for “First Annual Meeting of Hemophiliacs in Ohio” but it has since meant “Family Annual Meeting of Hemophiliacs in Ohio.” FAMOHIO, Inc. was grown out of the frustration of these adult men and their colleagues who had been infected by HIV in part because of the failure of government, product manufacturers, hemophilia organizations and others to adequately manage the quality of factor and communicate in a timely manner the risks of treatment. These men believed that an annual meeting of hemophiliacs and their families would provide an opportunity to share information, educate themselves, and work together for their common good. It was hoped that such a symposium would minimize the likelihood of a recurrence of such a calamity. Of the six men who organized FAMOHIO, Inc., Tommy Burr, Tom Drake, Ira Gaffin and Darrell Hairston have died. All four were active in and strong advocates of the hemophiliac community, and left behind loved ones as well as many friends who have ensured the continuation of FAMOHIO, Inc.

Home World News Latest Articles Escape Hatch ... Endless Buzz Blood Disorders: Hemophilia Disease Hemophilia Disease is a kind of genetic blood disorders due to malfunction of blood clotting factors or genetic mutation. As the clotting doesn�t take place properly, it often results into anemia and death. Also known as Royal Disease, this is linked with x chromosomes. Let us have a look� Hemophilia is a recessive genetic disorder linked to the X-Chromosome that is a malfunction of the eighth and ninth blood clotting factors. The blood does not clot properly and therefore any injuries that result in a cut can lead to death. Until very recently there has not been a cure and many people with this disease died before they could have children. It has been called the royal disease because it suddenly showed up as a genetic mutation in Queen Victoria (1819-1901) of Britain, who was a carrier and passed it on to her eighth son Leopold and thus on to her descendants and many other royal families of Europe. Her son was protected for many years, but died because of a fall at the age of thirty-one years old. What is Hemophilia?

16. Hemophilia, Hemophilia hemophilia is an inherited bleeding disorder caused by the absence or decreased levels of certain blood clotting factors. http://www.tylermedicalclinic.com/hemophilia.htm

The Tyler Medical Clinic Assisted Conception - Affordable Infertility Treatments - List of Diseases - Hemophilia A and Hemophilia B Hemophilia is an inherited bleeding disorder caused by the absence or decreased levels of certain blood clotting factors. In response to an injury such as a cut, the body releases platelets to form a clot at the injury site to prevent further bleeding. Various factors are produced by the platelets and these interact to form a clot. Absence or decreased levels of certain clotting factors causes increased bleeding time and results in Hemophilia. There are two types of Hemophilia and these are classified according to the deficient clotting factor. The more common form, Hemophilia A, is caused by a Factor VIII deficiency, and the less common form, Hemophilia B, is caused by Factor IX deficiency. Approximately 2/3 of all cases of Hemophilia are inherited, the rest are due to a sporadic genetic mutation. A couple with a familial history of hemophilia should consult with a genetic counselor. They should also be aware and should consider a new genetic test called Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis (PGD). PGD tests for genetic defects and determines the gender of an embryo prior to implantation. Through this mechanism, the chance of having an affected child can be significantly reduced. A genetic counselor can advise a couple on whether PGD will be of benefit to them. PGD can also test for other genetic disorders and is continually being improved to encompass other hereditary diseases.
