Haemophilia

Abstract

Analysis of 499 children and young adults with haemophilia showed that the HJHS is able to discriminate between children and adults and different treatment regimens. Reduction of the items 'duration swelling' and 'crepitus' resulted in the HJHS<sub>short</sub> , which had the same discriminative ability. Additional steps are needed to achieve a substantially shorter HJHS assessment.
