Investigation of the Relation Between Intraarticular Bleedings and Symptom Severity of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder in Children and Adolescents with Haemophilia

Abstract

Aim: Intra-articular bleedings in haemophilia patients and movement restrictions and joint deformities that occur as a result of these bleedings constitute an important health problem and deteriorate the quality of life for children. The purpose of this study is to investigate the relation between intra-articular bleedings and symptom severity of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and disruptive behavior disorders in children and adolescents with haemophilia.

Method: 24 boys with haemophilia were included in the study. During the interviews with children and their mothers, their sociodemographic features and frequency of intra-articular bleedings were examined. Following the interviews, mothers were asked to fill out the Disruptive Behavior Disorder Screening and Rating Scale based on Turgay Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders Fourth Edition, Text Revision. SPSS for Windows 16.0 software program was used for the statistical analysis of the study.

Results: As a result of the correlation analysis, no relation was determined between the symptom severity of attention deficit and frequency of intra-articular bleeding (p>0.05). A statistically significant positive relation was determined between the frequency of bleedings within the knee and ankle joints and symptom severities of hyperactivity, impulsivity, oppositional defiant disorder, and conduct disorder (p<0.05). No significant relation was detected between the frequency of bleedings within the elbow joint and subscale scores (p>0.05).

Conclusion: The results of our study have made us think that the frequency of bleeding especially within the knee and ankle joints is related with the symptom severity of hyperactivity/impulsivity, oppositional defiant disorder, and conduct disorder, and children having frequent bleedings within these joints should be evaluated from this aspect along with prophylactic treatment.

Key Words: Hemophilia; Attention Deficit And Hyperactivity Disorder; Intraarticular Bleeding.
