Clinical characteristic and management of haemophilia patients in Malaysia: A single centre experience.
Introduction: Haemophilia is one of the commonest inherited bleeding disorders which may lead to long term disabilities if not treated properly. Our aim of study is to understand the clinical characteristic, treatment and complications of adult haemophilia patients in our centre.
Materials and methods: A retrospective cross-sectional review of all adult haemophilia A (HA) or haemophilia B (HB) patients who received treatment in Hospital Pulau Pinang from January 2021 to December 2022 was conducted. Data was retrieved from patients' medical records.
Results: A total of 75 haemophilia patients (64 HA and 11 HB) were included in this study with median age of 37 years (range 19 70). 42 of them had severe haemophilia (50% of HA, 91% of HB). All HB and 93.8% of severe HA patients were on prophylaxis. Six severe and one mild HA patients developed inhibitor with four of them currently on non-factor prophylaxis. 24 patients (32%) had prior hepatitis C infection and all of them have been successfully treated. The mean annual bleeding rate for severe haemophilia patients were 1.77 (SD ±3.6). Target joints were observed in 9.3% of patients with ankle joint (71.4%) being the most affected joint. More than one quarter (26.7%) of our patients have comorbidities with majority of them having hypertension (17/20), followed by diabetes mellitus (5/20) and ischemic heart disease (5/20).
Conclusion: Our study showed that a significant number of adult patients with haemophilia have comorbidities. Apart from optimising factor replacement therapy, future planning should include improvement in screening, risk modification and prevention of cardiovascular disease.
期刊介绍:
Published since 1890 this journal originated as the Journal of the Straits Medical Association. With the formation of the Malaysian Medical Association (MMA), the Journal became the official organ, supervised by an editorial board. Some of the early Hon. Editors were Mr. H.M. McGladdery (1960 - 1964), Dr. A.A. Sandosham (1965 - 1977), Prof. Paul C.Y. Chen (1977 - 1987). It is a scientific journal, published quarterly and can be found in medical libraries in many parts of the world. The Journal also enjoys the status of being listed in the Index Medicus, the internationally accepted reference index of medical journals. The editorial columns often reflect the Association''s views and attitudes towards medical problems in the country. The MJM aims to be a peer reviewed scientific journal of the highest quality. We want to ensure that whatever data is published is true and any opinion expressed important to medical science. We believe being Malaysian is our unique niche; our priority will be for scientific knowledge about diseases found in Malaysia and for the practice of medicine in Malaysia. The MJM will archive knowledge about the changing pattern of human diseases and our endeavours to overcome them. It will also document how medicine develops as a profession in the nation. We will communicate and co-operate with other scientific journals in Malaysia. We seek articles that are of educational value to doctors. We will consider all unsolicited articles submitted to the journal and will commission distinguished Malaysians to write relevant review articles. We want to help doctors make better decisions and be good at judging the value of scientific data. We want to help doctors write better, to be articulate and precise.
