Leitlinie der Gesellschaft für Thrombose- und Hämostaseforschung (GTH) zur Struktur- und Prozessqualität von Hämophilie-Zentren

Summary

Since the 1970s, specialized hemophilia centers have been established to optimize the complex and costly treatment of patients with severe bleeding disorders. The focus is on long-term patient care through a multidisciplinary team of medical and non-medical specialists working in a hemophilia center. Such an optimized treatment has been shown to increase both the life expectancy and the quality of life of hemophilia patients.

This guideline of the Society for Thrombosis and Hemostasis Research (GTH) defines both the structure and process quality of hemophilia centers to achieve the following goals:

• ▪ Definition of a transparent criteria catalog by the GTH for the required structure and process quality of hemophilia centers.

• ▪ Ability to classify hemophilia centers based on these criteria.

• ▪ To create the prerequisite for starting a certification process of hemophilia centers under the auspices of GTH.
