Hi Everyone, This week we are joined by Dr Anastazia Keegan an obstetric haematologist and the head of Haematology at our Women's hospital here in Western Australia. Join us as Anastazia educates us about congenital bleeding disorders in pregnancy - the common ones, Von Willebrands disease and haemophilia - and how to approach a woman with one of the many uncommon ones (which working in a tertiary referral centre are more common than you would expect). Thanks for all the great advice and insights - we look forward to having Anastazia back in the near future for the lowdown on some more really important haematological conditions we encounter in women's health.

The social determinants of health (SDH) are the non-medical factors that influence health outcomes. They are the conditions in which people are born, grow, work, live, and age, and the wider set of forces and systems shaping the conditions of daily life. These forces and systems include economic policies and systems, development agendas, social norms, social policies and political systems.   Contributors: Keri Norris, PhD, JM, MPH, MCHES Karina Lopez, MPH Adrian Palau-Tejeda Marissa Melton, MPH Chris Bombardier Mosi Williams   Senior Advisor: Donna DiMichele, MD   Hosted by: Patrick James Lynch   Written by: Simantini Karve, PhD     Show Notes: Presenting Sponsor: Sanofi   Subscribe to the Global Hemophilia Report   Connect with the Global Hemophilia Report Global Hemophilia Report on LinkedIn Global Hemophilia Report on Twitter Global Hemophilia Report on Facebook   Connect with BloodStream Media: BloodStreamMedia.com BloodStream on Facebook  BloodStream on Twitter   

With Natalie Philbert, Manager of Women's Programs and Services at Hemophilia Ontario, and Dr. Meghan Pike, pediatrician and clinical fellow in Pediatric-Hematology Oncology at Dalhousie University/IWK Health Centre.   We don't always have the language to speak about our periods – let alone menstrual bleeding disorders. What are the signs and symptoms? What are the gaps in care and diagnosis? And how does it connect with gendered inequities?   May 28 was International Day of Action for Women's Health, so for the next few episodes, we're focusing on gender and health matters we may know bits and pieces of but probably need to learn more about. Today, we focus on menstrual bleeding disorders.  Natalie Philbert is a PhD candidate focusing on delay in diagnosis for menstruators with bleeding disorders. Natalie brings a professional and personal passion to the bleeding disorder community given her own diagnosis of Von Willebrand disease Type 1. She co-created a website called heroixx.ca, specifically designed for menstruators with bleeding disorders.    Dr. Meghan Pike launched the WeThrive App that can identify adolescents with heavy menstrual bleeding.  She is an advocate for free access to menstrual products. Her research interests include patient-reported outcome measures, impacts of cancer treatment on reproductive and menstrual health, and advocacy for menstruators.  Relevant links: heroixx.ca, WeThrive App (Apple App Store | Google Play)  Please listen, subscribe, rate, and review this podcast and share it with others.

In this episode, the Sanders Sisters deep dive into discussion on deep vein thrombosis (DVT) awareness and discuss etiology and management for bleeding disorders. What is DVT? DVT is a medical condition that occurs when a blood clot forms in a deep vein. Irregular clotting or lack-of can cause a variety of issues, especially in procedures where soft tissue (such as the gums) come into play. Check out this resource from Stefanie VanDuine, RDH, BSDH, MSDH on treating patients with bleeding disorders.  Floss and Flip-Flops with the Sanders sisters features hosts dental hygienist and speaker Katrina M. Sanders, RDH, and podiatrist Dr Elizabeth Sanders, DPM. Together, the sisters discuss the oral-systemic link and its impact—from your teeth down to your toes.

This talk goes over the most common causes of inhirted bleeding disorders. There are two major types of hemophilia – deficiency in factor VIII and IX – which predominant occur in men. Hemophilia A is deficiency of factor VIII and is the most common form of hemophilia treated with factor concentrate. Hemophilia B is less common but treatment principles are the same. There are multiple types of von Willebrand Disease as this is a complex molecular that both carries factor VIII and forms large multimers essential for platelet function. Mild forms of vWD can be treated by desmopressin but von Willebrand factor is needed for more severe types.

According to the Centers for Disease Control, pain is one of the most common reasons people seek medical care. However, for persons affected by hemophilia A and B, the experience of pain has provided the subtext for many issues related to health and wellbeing across the lifespan, and irrespective of gender, age, and, potentially, hemophilia severity levels. Although less-well characterized in children, pain is already embedded in the life experience of a PWH, and a substantial contributor to poor health-related quality of life in adolescence and young adulthood, further increasing in negative impact throughout adult life. In this episode, we explore pain's prevalence, mechanisms, and more.    Contributors: Nathalie Anne Roussel, PhD, MSc, PT Paul Mc Laughlin,  BSc, MSc, MMACP Michelle Rice    Senior Advisor: Donna DiMichele, MD   Episode Advisors (also contributors): Michelle Witkop, DNP, FNP-BC Tyler Buckner, MD   Hosted by: Patrick James Lynch   Show Notes: Presenting Sponsor: Sanofi Subscribe to the Global Hemophilia Report   Listen to BloodStream's Pain Podcast   Connect with the Global Hemophilia Report Global Hemophilia Report on LinkedIn Global Hemophilia Report on Twitter Global Hemophilia Report on Facebook   Connect with BloodStream Media: BloodStreamMedia.com BloodStream on Facebook  BloodStream on Twitter

Even with the introduction of prophylaxis, the goal of achieving perfect bone and joint health for patients with hemophilia through normalizing homeostasis remains elusive.

Prophylaxis in hemophilia has led to extraordinary progress, however, recent studies suggest that although the overall musculoskeletal health of persons with hemophilia has significantly improved, the goal of attaining a level of musculoskeletal health comparable to that of the general population without hemophilia has still not been achieved. Furthermore, the impact of prophylaxis has been uneven across hemophilia populations and the promise of greater physical activity free of hemorrhage has not been entirely fulfilled. This episode explores the history, evolution, and current state of prophylaxis, and highlights the current and future areas of further investigation.   Contributors: Episode Advisors: Dr. Marilyn Manco Johnson Dr. Kathelijn Fischer   Contributors: Dr. Robert Sidonio Dr. Manuel Carcao  Dr. Maria Elisa Mancuso Susan Lynch   Senior Advisor: Dr. Donna DiMichele   Links to learn more: A history of prophylaxis in haemophilia Hemophilia A and B: Routine management including prophylaxis Young adult outcomes of childhood prophylaxis for severe hemophilia A: results of the Joint Outcome Continuation Study Tailored frequency-escalated primary prophylaxis for severe haemophilia A: results of the 16-year Canadian Hemophilia Prophylaxis Study longitudinal cohort Factor VIII replacement prophylaxis in patients with hemophilia A transitioning to adults: a systematic literature review Long-term outcomes with emicizumab prophylaxis for hemophilia A with or without FVIII inhibitors from the HAVEN 1-4 studies Optimal treatment strategies for hemophilia: achievements and limitations of current prophylactic regimens Optimising prophylaxis in haemophilia A: The ups and downs of treatment Show Notes: Presenting Sponsor: Sanofi Subscribe to the Global Hemophilia Report Connect with the Global Hemophilia Report Global Hemophilia Report on LinkedIn Global Hemophilia Report on Twitter Global Hemophilia Report on Facebook Connect with BloodStream Media: BloodStreamMedia.com BloodStream on Facebook  BloodStream on Twitter
