Optimizing Global Care for Women with vo...

European Hematology Association
About this episode

With the increasing scrutiny of healthcare pathways for women, this podcast provides a timely plea by Dr Michelle Lavin from St. James’s Hospital in Dublin, Ireland, to optimize global care for women with von Willebrand disease (VWD).

In this podcast, Dr Lavin gives a passionate appeal for more international collaboration and increased awareness to improve care for women and girls suffering from bleeding disorders. As challenges facing women with these disorders are multiple, including diagnostic inequalities and suboptimal treatments, the solutions are also multi-factorial. Listen to dr. Lavin give her recommendations to provide the best possible care, based on the findings from the Annual Global Survey of the World Federation of Hemophilia, World Bleeding Disorder Registry and other data.

In Dr Lavin’s own words: “there's momentum behind Women's Health”, so tune in to participate. 

Guest: Dr Michelle Lavin
