Sponsor's own description

Hemophilia is a rare hematological disorder characterized by a partial or complete deficiency of clotting factor VIII or IX.Bleeding disorders mainly affect the musculoskeletal system. Intra-articular bleeding is an important complication related to hemophilia and usually occurs in large synovial joints such as knees and ankles. Initially, these bleeds occur non-specific spontaneously and usually affect one joint, and repeated bleeding makes that joint a target joint. Postural balance can be defined as the ability to maintain a stable posture for maximum duration with minimal body sway, or to hold the body centre of gravity (CoG) over its base support in varying conditions (1). Somatosensorial information from mechanoreceptors, visual and vestibular receptors is required to maintain postural balance. Postural balance is tried to be controlled by the postural adjustments provided by the contraction of the lower limb muscles and trunk muscles before perturbation. Spontaneous hemarthrosis is a distinctive feature of severe haemophilia, and that recurrent bleedings may likely to cause postural balance disorders by disrupting proprioceptive inputs from mechanoreceptors in the joint. Data on how bleeding affects postural balance in children with hemophilia is unclear.In the relationship between the clinical evaluation of hemophilia and postural balance, there is little research in the literature.
