The first book with a holistic approach to all aspects of care for women with inherited bleeding disorders. Inherited bleeding disorders have an adverse effect on the quality of life of afflicted women. Management of these women and their conditions is challenging and close collaboration between professionals in different specialties is needed. International experts and leaders of clinical research including hematologists, obstetrician-gynecologists, an anesthetist and those involved in patient advocacy show you how in this practical guide for clinicians. This book covers the gynecological and obstetric issues for: carriers of hemophilia; women with von Willebrand's disease; rare bleeding disorders and, inherited platelet disorders. This book includes recent advances in the field and explores areas for future research. The women's perspective and the efforts of advocacy groups are also discussed in the final chapter. These features make this book a unique, comprehensive and multi-disciplinary resource.
