World Hemophilia Day 2023: Significance

Awareness raising of people with Hemophilia and related blood disorders is an important aspect of this day. Bleeding in muscles, joints and parts of the body may occur in severely ill patients. 

This is an inherited disease, passed down to the child by their parents. Patients can therefore be encouraged to watch out for the disease and take precautionary measures if they are detected earlier.

World Hemophilia Day 2023: Theme

The theme for this year’s hemophilia day is “Access for All: Prevention of bleeds as the global standard of care”

World Hemophilia Day 2023: Importance

 In 2000, it was estimated that 4 lakh persons, or around 1 in 10,000 live births, were affected by this disorder worldwide, and only 25% of those affected had access to adequate treatment. But in 2019, a meta-analysis found that there are 11.25 lakh more men in India who have the genetic bleeding condition.

The availability of effective haemophilia treatment is limited to only about 15 % of the global population in high-income countries. The lack of help with diagnosis and medicine guides to increased mortality and morbidity rates in low- and middle-income countries.

The 31st World Haemophilia Day has been celebrated this year and is dedicated to raising public awareness of the importance of supporting governments and policymakers in improving treatment, prevention and control of bleeds in persons with bleeding disorders.
