| PubMedID- 24286226 | A recently published study found that scores for acute pain associated with a bleed event were higher (5.97/10) than scores for pain not associated with a bleed (4.22/10) 16.this is consistent with existing literature which suggests that although acute and chronic pain in patients with haemophilia are qualitatively similar, patients experience acute pain as being more intense 17. however, findings from a recent study evaluating 15 spontaneous, non-traumatic pain episodes (six ankles, seven knee, two muscles) in 11 haemophilic adults suggested that patients and physicians misclassified the pain aetiology for the majority of episodes 18. of 10 episodes of patient-perceived joint bleeding, only three were confirmed by ultrasound imaging to actually be associated with bleeding. |
