Characterizing female patients with haemophilia A: Administrative claims analysis and medical chart review

Abstract: Aim Haemophilia A (HA) is a male‐predominant disorder, yet women and girls can have factor VIII (FVIII) deficiency with bleeding events requiring treatment. This study aimed to identify and characterize female patients with HA.

“…The current terminology used to categorize persons with hemophilia A is directly tied to FVIII levels [32]. The lack of uniform terminology directly influences both clinical care and research, as even claims data studies are unable to accurately identify hemophilia A carriers documented as receiving hemostatic treatment for bleeding events [33]. To that end, a group constituting two International Society of Haemostasis and Thrombosis (ISTH) Scientific Subcommittees have proposed new nomenclature for hemophilia carriers (Fig.…”

To our knowledge, there is only one study on LVS provision that was based on healthcare claims, in Canada, which described LVS utilisation patterns over time from both provider and user perspectives.…”
