Join this session to gain a comprehensive look at physical activity for patients with hemophilia from the hematology, psychosocial, and physiotherapy perspectives. Learn more about factor coverage for increased physical activity, and the impacts of physical activity on patients with inhibitors. Discover tools to help young patients balance the physical benefits of sports with the social impact of not being able to participate. Examine physiotherapy approaches to prepare patients for intensive sports and explore the safety issues to consider before, during, and following physical activity.
