Priority 7 from the Bleeding Disorder PSP
| UNCERTAINTY: What are the benefits of psychological and psychosocial strategies for support of individuals or families affected by bleeding disorders? (JLA PSP Priority 7) | |
|---|---|
| Overall ranking | 7 |
| JLA question ID | 0078/7 |
| Explanatory note | Although therapeutic strategies for bleeding disorders can be very effective they are not available for all patients. Moreover, even effective strategies can be difficult to accommodate and require limitations of activity and lifestyle. These factors can impact the life of the individual and their family, as can knowledge that the disorder is inherited. It is important to know whether psychological and psychosocial therapy can ameliorate these effects. |
