Bleeding disorders result when the blood’s ability to form a clot at the site of blood vessel injury is impaired. Shining a light on the National Hemophilia Foundation (NHF), this segment will explore the latest information surrounding inheritable bleeding disorders, such as hemophilia, von Willebrand disease, and rare factor deficiencies.
Viewers will learn about NHF’s programs and initiatives, which are dedicated to finding better treatments and cures for inheritable bleeding disorders and to preventing the complications of these disorders through education, advocacy, and research.
“The National Hemophilia Foundation is excited to participate in this unique opportunity,” said Dr. Leonard Valentino, President and CEO at NHF. “Technology plays a key role in the bleeding disorders community and will dictate where we will go with treatments and care from gene therapy to novel technologies and cell therapy on the horizon.”
Audiences will hear from experts and will also be educated about experimental methods, such as gene therapy, that are currently being investigated as potential cures for bleeding disorders.
“Bleeding disorders have been documented throughout history and can be found in writings as far back as the second century AD,” said Richard Lubin, senior producer for Advancements. “We look forward to exploring how technology, research, and NHF’s dedication is opening doors for breakthrough treatment options for hemophilia and similar bleeding disorders.”
