BACKGROUND: Management of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in patients with haemophilia is extremely challenging. Therefore, knowing the prevalence of CVD and risk factors in this population is imperative.
METHODS: All consented patients ≥ 18 years of age attending the haemophilia clinic at a tertiary care centre were recruited to the study. Data were collected using a pretested, investigator administered questionnaire. Seated blood pressure, anthropometric measurements and blood samples were obtained using standard techniques. Lipid profile and fasting plasma glucose were estimated. Prevalence of risk factors for CVD was compared with those of age matched males in the general population. P values < 0.05 were considered significant.
RESULTS: Of the total 109 participants, 92 (84.4%) had haemophilia A. The median age of the study group was 36 years. Three (2.8%) had at least one cardiovascular disease. There were 10 (9.2%), 30 (27.5%), 13 (11.9%) and 4 (3.7%) participants with diabetes, hypertension, current smoking and obesity (Body Mass Index (BMI) ≥ 30 kg/m2) respectively. 32 (29.4%) and 37 (33.9%) participants had waist circumference ≥ 90 cm and waist hip ratio ≥ 0.9 respectively. 38 (34.9%) had total cholesterol ≥ 200 mg/dl, 43 (39.5%) had low density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol ≥ 130 mg/dl, 25 (22.9%) had triglycerides (TG) ≥ 150 mg/dl and 58 (53.2%) had High density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol < 40 mg/dl. Diabetes was significantly associated with factor levels below 5% (p = 0.038). BMI, waist circumference and dyslipidaemia in the study were significantly higher compared to the general population.
CONCLUSION: The study signifies an increased prevalence of risk factors for CVD among patients with haemophilia and the need for preventive measures.
