BACKGROUND Haemophilia’s are X-linked hereditary blood clotting disorders due to deficiency of factor VIII (haemophilia A) or factor IX (haemophilia B) & also has identical clinical manifestations, screening tests abnormalities and sex-linked genetic transmission. Haemophilia’s result from defects in the factor VIII / IX gene that lead to decreased amount of factor VIII / IX protein, the presence of a functionally abnormal protein, or combination of both. Haemophilia A is a classic example of an X-linked recessive trait. The severity of their bleeding depends on their factor VIII activity level; and, rarely, a woman can have very low factor VIII activity, and present with symptoms of moderate or even severe haemophilia. We wanted to study the clinical profile of patients of haemophilia admitted in a tertiary care hospital. METHODS This is a cross-sectional study enrolling 60 known cases of haemophilia A & B admitted in wards & ICU / attending OPD of a tertiary care hospital. History was obtained in detail & thorough clinical examination was carried out. Precipitating factors for bleeding (spontaneous / minor trauma / major trauma / surgical operation / dental procedure / others), family h / o bleeding were studied in detail. RESULTS Of the total 60 cases of haemophilia, majority (49) of cases were of haemophilia A and 11 cases were of haemophilia B. In the study, majority (28.33 %) of cases belonged to 12 - 20 years age group and the most common presentation was haemarthrosis (61.67 %). 6 patients had factor VIII inhibitor antibodies and all of them were of haemophilia A. CONCLUSIONS Haemarthrosis is the most common clinical presentation of haemophilia and most common cause for haemarthrosis is spontaneous bleeding. Most common joint involved in bleeding was knee joint (target joint). Presence of factor VIII inhibitor antibodies specially in haemophilia A patients is not uncommon.

 Introductions: Newborn and young infants are most vulnerable for preventable deaths, particularly in developing countries. This study was conducted to see the clinical profile and outcome of infants less than two months of age admitted in children ward of Patan Hospital.Methods: This descriptive retrospective study was conducted at Patan Hospital, over 12 months from April 2014 to March 2015. Hospital records of all admitted infants aged less than two months were reviewed. The demographic characteristics, clinical profile and clinical outcome were descriptively analyzed.Results: Out of 2062 admissions in children ward, 614 (29.8%) were infants aged less than two months, out of which 482 were neonates less than 28 days. Among these neonates, 114 were inborn. Out of 436 infections, blood culture was positive in 37 (8.9%). There were 4 (0.04%) deaths, 4 (0.04%) referral and 22 (0.25%) left against medical advice. Infection 436 (436) was the commonest cause of illness, of which neonatal sepsis was 163 (37.4%), pneumonia 130 (30%) staphylococcal skin infection 39 (8.7%) and UTI 34 (7.8%). There were 71 (11.6%) cases of neonatal hyperbilirubinemia. Blood culture was positive in 55 (9%) with CONS being the commonest organism isolated; 19 (51.3%).Conclusions: Children ward contributes significantly to the care of sick infants less than two months of age, especially out born ones, requiring neonatal care facility in tertiary level hospital of Nepal. As most admissions are for infection, followed by hyperbilirubinemia, pediatrics wards need to be equipped and staffed accordingly to meet the need of sick young infants.Journal of Patan Academy of Health  Sciences. 2016 Dec;3(2):15-18
