Educating, connecting, inspiring, and empowering people of all ages who are living with hemophilia with inhibitors.

Many people with hemophilia A or B with inhibitors feel they are on their own. The Inhibitor Education Summits can help by connecting you to the resources you need.

Come join other patients with hemophilia with inhibitors and their families for a weekend of education designed to improve overall health and quality of life for patients.

Living with hemophilia with inhibitors can affect your well-being in ways that only other patients with this condition can understand. These annual Inhibitor Education Summits connect patients and their caregivers with expert healthcare professionals, as well as fellow patients with whom they can share important information and experiences on effective management strategies for improving daily life.

Topics for the 2009 Inhibitor Education Summits include:

• Current management options for patients with hemophilia with inhibitors, such as surgical interventions for arthropathy and immune tolerance induction
• Available alternatives for safely managing joint pain
• The importance of daily exercise and good nutrition
• Strategies for insurance coverage and financial security
• Coping mechanisms for improving the psychological well-being of patients and their caregivers
