Statement of Need

Patients with hemophilia and other benign rare blood disorders frequently present to the emergency department with a wide variety of bleeding-related issues. Hence, it is important that clinicians in the emergency setting be aware of optimal approaches to treat and monitor patients with these diseases and to accurately recognize these conditions in patients who may not have yet been diagnosed.

This CME Outfitters LLC Snack features case-based learning designed to facilitate problem-solving and therefore bridge the gap between evidence and actionable changes in practice as they pertain to updated guidelines, new treatments, and emerging therapies that will help physicians and other professionals who work in the ED with identifying, monitoring, and managing patients with hemophilia.

Learning Objectives

At the end of this CE activity, participants should be able to:

  • Recognize and manage complications associated with benign rare blood disorders such as hemophilia in the emergency department setting.
  • Evaluate clinical data for the efficacy and safety of current and emerging treatments for benign rare blood disorders.
  • Implement personalized, evidence-based approaches to managing benign rare blood disorders in the emergency department setting.

The following learning objectives pertain only to those requesting CNE or CPE credit:

  • Explain the complications associated with benign rare blood disorders such as hemophilia in the emergency department setting.
  • Describe the clinical data for the efficacy and safety of current and emerging treatments for benign rare blood disorders.
  • Identify personalized, evidence-based approaches for managing benign rare blood disorders in the emergency department setting.
