Steven Pipe, MD, professor of pediatrics and pathology, Laurence A. Boxer research professor of pediatrics and communicable diseases, pediatric medical director of the Hemophilia and Coagulation Disorders Program, and director of the Special Coagulation Laboratory at the University of Michigan, spoke with Healio about the management of bleeding disorders.

In these videos, Pipe discussed:

  • Common challenges clinicians see when managing and treating patients with hemophilia A, including maintaining factor VIII prophylaxis;
  • Areas of unmet need in the clinical management and research of bleeding disorders, such as addressing joint bleeds;
  • Novel treatment options on the horizon for bleeding disorders;
  • How the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted the care of patients with bleeding disorders, and how this patient population was “well-suited” for stay-at-home orders due to the ability for remote treatment; and
  • What awareness means in the bleeding disorders community.
