M-HEMORRH'AGE: Medication Exposure in Older Patients With Constitutional Hemorrhagic Disease
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The improvements observed in the care of patients with hemophilia or Willebrand disease have led to an increase in their life expectancy, which today approaches that of the general population. This increase in life expectancy leads in these patients to the development of comorbidities related to aging (cardiovascular and neurological diseases, cancers and kidney diseases) (e.g "Franchini & Mannuccio", BJH, 2009). The care of these comorbidities represents a new challenge for the medical teams. Toward multiple comorbidities, polypharmacy is often associated.
Many studies about medication exposure and management in older patients were published but no study was conducted to explore the medication management of older patients with hemophilia or Willebrand disease.
