Art or Science: Musculoskeletal Management of Hemophilia for Physical Therapists

Speakers: Alice Anderson, PT, DPT, PCS; Moderator: Eileen San Juan, MS, PT

Art or Science: You are the PT. You know anatomy and kinesiology. You know the basic pathophysiology of hemophilia. But what recommendations will you provide for the person with a bleeding disorder who is sitting in front of you? RICE? Don’t participate in collision sports? This session focuses on what we know, what we think we know, and what we hope we know about an evidence-based approach to the musculoskeletal management of persons with bleeding disorders.
