Muscle Strength in Children and Adolescents With Haemophilia on Prophylaxis: An Age‐Adjusted Dynamometric Study
Key Points
Investigate isometric knee strength in children and adolescents with haemophilia undergoing prophylaxis.
Conducted a dynamometric study to assess knee strength
Included children and adolescents diagnosed with haemophilia
Used age-adjusted measurements for accurate strength comparisons
Observed reduced isometric knee strength, especially in the non-dominant limb
Recommended early and individualized physiotherapy
Emphasized the need for regular strength monitoring
Abstract
CwH display reduced isometric knee strength-particularly in the non-dominant limb-despite prophylaxis. Early, individualized physiotherapy and regular strength monitoring are recommended.
