Jonathan Roberts, Dr, The Bleeding & Clotting Disorders Institute, Peoria, IL, discusses the findings of a single-center study evaluating joint health status and bleeding phenotype in patients with severe and non-severe hemophilia A and B using musculoskeletal ultrasound and other clinical tools. Dr Roberts highlights the heterogeneous findings in this group of patients, with some experiencing improvement, worsening, or no change in joint health over a one-year interval. He also suggests that the existence of subclinical or microbleeds may contribute to joint health deterioration. This interview took place at the 67th ASH Annual Meeting and Exposition, held in Orlando, FL.
