Rare diseases, orthopedic: “Thanks to joint ultrasound haemophilic therapy and early prophylaxis”

“During routine visits to patients with haemophilia, joint ultrasound allows us to effectively monitor the condition of the joint.” Thus Stefano Giaretta, orthopedist of the Uoc Orthopedics and Traumatology Oc San Bartolo of Vicenza, argued the importance of joint ultrasound in patients suffering from haemophilia, during the online meeting on the occasion of the Vicenza stage of Articoliamo, a campaign supported by Sobi with the patronage of FedEmo and dedicated to the joint well-being of haemophilic patients. “Joint ultrasound is a non-invasive, non-risky and painless examination for the patient, and highlighting subclinical bleeding allows us to adopt early therapeutic or prophylactic measures”.
