Hemophilia??
Question: Anyone here have Hemophilia? I need an interview done by tomorrow. I know its last minute but any help would be appreciated.
Answers: Hemophilia is a rare genetic bleeding disorder that almost always occurs in males. A person has hemophilia when he or she inherits problems with certain blood-clotting factors, making them unable to work properly. Blood-clotting factors are needed to help stop bleeding after a cut or injury and to prevent spontaneous bleeding. The hemophilia gene can contain many different errors, leading to different degrees of abnormality in the amount of clotting factor produced.
There are two major types of hemophilia:
Hemophilia A is caused by a deficiency of active clotting factor VIII (8). Approximately 80% of all people with hemophilia have type A, and most of these cases are severe. 1 Approximately 1 out of every 5,000 male babies is born with hemophilia A. 2
Hemophilia B (Christmas disease) is caused by a lack of active clotting factor IX (9). It is less common, occurring in 1 out of every 30,000 male babies. 2
Hemophilia is usually classified by how severe it is. There are three levels of hemophilia, although they can overlap. The severity of the disease is defined by how much clotting factor is produced and in what situations bleeding most often occurs.
