The relationship between target joints and direct resource use in severe haemophilia

Abstract: ObjectivesTarget joints are a common complication of severe haemophilia. While factor replacement therapy constitutes the majority of costs in haemophilia, the relationship between target joints and non drug-related direct costs (NDDCs) has not been studied.MethodsData on haemophilia patients without inhibitors was drawn from the ‘Cost of Haemophilia across Europe – a Socioeconomic Survey’ (CHESS) study, a cost assessment in severe haemophilia A and B across five European countries (France, Germany, Italy, Spa… Show more

“…Reductions in HRQoL (measured by metrics such as the HRQoL index, EQ‐5D utility value and EQ‐VAS, the Haem‐A‐QoL scale and their various subscales/dimensions) are most noticeable for those with severe HA, or those with inhibitors to FVIII. HRQoL is also significantly influenced by target join disease as shown across five European countries in the CHESS study 29 . Reductions in quality of life are typically associated with poor physical health; inability to participate in sports, recreational or leisure activities; missed school or work; the perception of self; and the impact on the family 30‐34 .…”

“…As shown in the United States, while bleed‐related admissions are most common (17.0 admissions per 1000 patient‐years), PwHA may also be admitted due to major joint replacement (2.3 admissions per 1000 patient‐years), lower extremity and humerus procedures (2.1 admissions per 1000 patient‐years) and bone disease and arthropathy (2.0 admissions per 1000 patient‐years) 15 . In the CHESS study, 42.7% of people with a target joint had had surgery to the target joint in the preceding 12 months 29 . As with bleed‐related hospitalizations, hospitalizations for joint disease are more common in people with inhibitors (24.1% vs 6.2%) 46 .…”

“…Deficiencies in the blood clotting Factor VIII (FVIII) is called 'hemophilia A' and deficiencies in the blood clotting Factor IX (FIX) is known as 'hemophilia B' [2] which are categorized in terms of the severity into severe, moderate, and mild. Hemophilia imposes enormous health care costs on the patients, society and the health system [3]. In the United States and European countries, hemophilia is one of the most expensive diseases and a costly disorder that is highly considered not only because of its high direct medical costs but also because of its indirect costs [4][5][6][7].…”
