 <\/p>\n

“OUTREACH AND IDENTIFICATION”<\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

This year, the World Federation of Hemophilia (WFH) is focusing on reaching out and identifying new members of the bleeding disorders community. For many years, the WFH has supported outreach projects in different countries and conducted educational events for both lay and health care professionals in conjunction with our national member organizations (NMOs).<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The WHD2019 campaign will feature examples of WFH outreach initiatives like organizing regional workshops, raising awareness of bleeding through media coverage or training health professionals and collecting data. It will combine these examples with submissions from our community about outreach efforts in their own regions or ideas about what would be helpful for future initiatives.<\/p>\n

What is Hemophilia?<\/h1>\n

 <\/p>\n

Hemophilia is a blood disorder in which the clotting property of the body decreases. The bleeding disorders in the body are due to defects in the blood vessels<\/a>, the coagulation mechanism or blood platelets. An affected person may bleed for longer as compared to a healthy person after surgery<\/a> or an injury.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The blood coagulation mechanism is a procedure in which there is a transformation of the blood from a liquid into a solid form as well as involves several different clotting factors. The mechanism generates fibrin (a non-globular protein involved in the clotting of blood) when it is activated, which together with the platelet plug, stops the bleeding.<\/p>\n
