Rôle des équipes douleur dans la prise en charge des patients hémophiles

Unlike other chronic joint disorders, pain in hemophilia (PWH) has been the subject of few clinical studies despite its high incidence, and there is currently no consensus of care. PWH presents both chronic pain and acute episodes whose management, sometimes complex, requires a good knowledge of the disease, a close collaboration between hemophilia treatment centers (CTH) and pain structures (SD) to preserve their quality of life and improve the functional prognosis. The principles of good management are recalled as well as the necessary adaptation to each individual situation, based on a quality therapeutic relationship.
