Benefits of physical activity self-monitoring in patients with haemophilia: a prospective study with one-year follow-up.

Introduction: Activity wristbands have been shown to be effective in relation to self-monitoring activity levels and increasing exercise adherence. However, previous reports have been based on short-term follow-ups in people with haemophilia (PWH).

Aim: (1) To evaluate compliance with physical activity (PA) recommendations in PWH during a 1-year follow-up period using activity wristbands to record daily steps and intensity; (2) To determine the effect of PA self-monitoring on clinical outcomes.

Psychological Health Among Older Adults During and After Quarantine: A Multi-Method Study.

Patient, clinician, and performance-based measures provide different information about clinical symptoms in patients with severe knee osteoarthritis presenting with depressive symptoms: a cross-sectional study.

Background And Purpose: Clinical status of subjects with knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is influenced by a complex interaction of several biopsychosocial factors. The use of patient-reported measures (PROM) is considered the gold standard for their evaluation. However, considering that 1 in 5 subjects with KOA present with depressive symptoms, it is necessary to analyse how this psychological domain may influence the subjective perception of PROM.

Haemophilic arthropathy: basic protocols for clinical examination and imaging.

In haemophilia, screening protocols in the prevention and treatment of common lesions still require unification of criteria. Patients with haemophilia seek medical consultation exclusively for two reasons: because they have requested an appointment for a routine check-up (1-2 times a year in case of severe haemophilia) or because they have developed acute bleeding that requires treatment. The purpose of this paper is to emphasize the importance of an early differential diagnosis of joint damage and to review the techniques that allow an effective evaluation.
