| | | NHF12-207 | | Consequences of Blood in the Joint: Science to Clinical Practice Speakers: Angela Forsyth, PT, DPT Prevention of joint bleeding to protect structures such as the synovial membrane, cartilage and bone from detrimental changes is optimal, but not entirely feasible at this time. Therefore, we frequently must rely on medical and adjunct treatment administered at the time of bleeding to minimize the negative effects of blood in the joint. Advances in treatment that healthcare providers are able to offer people with hemophilia begin with basic science. In this session we discuss multiple concepts taken from scientific research that may influence future clinical practice and our ability to affect inflammation, wound healing, synovitis, cartilage and bone, and minimizing the negative effects of blood in the joint.
