About this study

Official title: Physiotherapy Protocol by Myofascial Therapy and Randomized Clinical Study in Patients With Hemophilic Arthropathy

Designing a treatment protocol using myofascial therapy for the treatment of pain and restrictions on mobility in patients with hemophilic arthropathy of the knee and ankle.

Pilot with a small number of patients for assessment the effectiveness and safety of the treatment protocol created.

Randomized clinical trial to assess the effectiveness of treatment with myofascial therapy in patients with hemophilia.

Describe the differences in terms of the dependent variables (range of motion, pain and flexibility) in patients with hemophilia who have carried out the treatment.

Report the relationship between the clinical characteristics of patients and the results obtained after the treatment period.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Bleeding frequency

    Change from number of bleeding during treatment and follow-up period at 1 month

    Measured: Screening visit, within the first seven days after treatment and after one month follow-up visit

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Pain

    Change from joint pain during treatment and follow-up period at 1 month

    Measured: Screening visit, within the first seven days after treatment and after one month follow-up visit

  2. Joint function

    Change from joint health during treatment and follow-up period at 1 month. Haemophilia Joint Health. Measurement instrument: Score and Gilbert score

    Measured: Screening visit, within the first seven days after treatment and after one month follow-up visit

  3. Range of motion

    Change from range of movement of ankle and knee during treatment and follow-up period at 1 month. Measurement instrument: universal goniometer with the protocol to measurement for patients with hemophilia

    Measured: Screening visit, within the first seven days after treatment and after one month follow-up visit
