Triage
- Individuals with bleeding disorders should be triaged urgently since delays in administering appropriate therapy, such as infusion of factor concentrate, can significantly affect morbidity and mortality.
- Consultation with the patient’s primary provider of bleeding disorder care, in most cases a hematologist, is strongly advised. If this provider is unavailable, consultation with a bleeding disorders provider from the closest hemophilia treatment center is recommended. Administration of clotting factor replacement to the patient should not be delayed waiting for a consultation.
