EHA issues recommendations on mild to moderate bleeding disorders

For hematologists, it can be challenging to make the correct diagnosis in patients with bleeding problems – or even to determine whether there is any bleeding disorder at all. A set of consensus recommendations on the initial diagnostic approach to mild-to-moderate inherited bleeding disorders from the EHA was published today in HemaSphere, the official journal of EHA.

The report is the first step in an EHA initiative to develop evidence-based guidelines for specific mild and moderate bleeding disorders. Francesco Rodeghiero, MD, of the Hematology Project Foundation, Vicenza, Italy, is lead author of the EHA International Working Group report.
