Abstract:
Haematologists are long standing proponents of evidence based practice-well exemplified among professionals who care for patients with haemophilia. The rapidly expanding range of therapeutic products and the numerous accompanying clinical trials are swiftly interpreted and translated into clinical practice. This translation is formalised by frequently updated quidelines issued by the United Kingdom Haemophilia Centre Directors' Organisation (UKHCDO) and relevant to all doctors involved in the care of patients with haemophilia. In the last five years eight sets of guidelines have been issued in the UK alone relating to the treatment of haemophilia and its complications [1-8]. Against this background we aim to review current practice in the treatment of haemophilia.

Disorders of Hemostasis
Thromboembolic Disorders
Two factors primarily cause thromboembolic conditions.
Introduction to Hemostasis
The three phases of hemostasis involve many clotting factors present in plasma and several substances released by platelets and injured tissue cells. It is a fast, localized,...
Extrinsic and Intrinsic Pathways of Hemostasis
The Extrinsic Pathway
The extrinsic pathway of coagulation is typically initiated by tissue damage that exposes blood to tissue factor (TF), a protein released by the damaged tissue cells outside the blood vessels—this interaction with TF triggers biochemical reactions involving specific clotting factors. The key player here is Factor VII, which...
