ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial, titled "Prevalence of Synovitis in Patients With Haemophilia A," aims to understand how common a condition called synovitis is among adult men with haemophilia A. Synovitis is the inflammation of the lining of the joints, which can cause pain and swelling, and is often seen in patients with haemophilia A, a genetic disorder that affects blood clotting. The study is currently looking for participants who are 18 years or older and have moderate to severe haemophilia A. Eligible participants must have a detailed medical history that includes information about their treatment and any bleeding events from the past year.

If you decide to join this study, you will be helping researchers learn more about how haemophilia A impacts joint health. It’s important to note that the trial is only open to men who do not have other bleeding disorders that could interfere with the study. Participants will need to provide written consent, and they can expect to undergo assessments related to their condition. This trial is a step towards improving care and treatment for those living with haemophilia A.
