AI Article Synopsis
- A study was conducted to create and validate a new protocol called THD-US for detecting tendinopathy in patients with hemophilia using ultrasound.
- Twenty male patients with hemophilic arthropathy were evaluated, resulting in analyses of 200 tendons for abnormalities such as structural changes, hyperemia, and calcifications.
- The THD-US protocol offers a standardized and efficient way to assess tendon issues in hemophilia patients, which could lead to better management and outcomes for these individuals.
Article Abstract
This study aimed to develop and validate the tendinopathy hemophilia detection with ultrasonography (THD-US) protocol for assessing hemophilia-related tendinopathy. Twenty male patients with hemophilic arthropathy underwent ultrasound evaluations of 200 tendons. The THD-US scoring method assessed structural changes, hyperemia, and calcifications, revealing various tendon abnormalities. This protocol provides a standardized, efficient method for assessing tendinopathy in hemophilia patients, potentially improving patient management and outcomes.
