Abstract
Twenty-eight severely affected haemophiliacs were observed for 3 months under treatment as hospital out-patients and for the subsequent 9 months while treating themselves at home. Delay in receiving treatment and financial costs were both clearly reduced by home treatment, the patients recovered from individual bleeds more quickly and reported a greater sense of personal freedom and independence. The amount of treatment required did not materially change and no untoward effects were noted; the use of analgesics tended to be less.
