October 21, 2021 updated by: PD Dr. Andreas Strauß

Osteoporosis Screening in Adult Patients With Haemophilia and Influence of Physical Activity on the Prevalence of Osteoporosis

The aim of this study is to evaluate the prevalence of osteoporosis in adult patients with haemophilia.

Detailed Description

The aim of this study is to evaluate the prevalence of osteoporosis in adult patients with haemophilia. Subsequently, the ascertained prevalence of osteoporosis in patients with haemophilia will be compared to the latest published data of osteoporosis in Germany. Furthermore, the impact of severity of haemophilia, comorbidities as well as the role of both physical activity and individual joint condition as influencing factors on the presence of osteoporosis will be analysed by this study.

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort
Patients with mild haemophilia A or B
(FVIII or IX >5 %, ≥ 18 years' old)

(FVIII or IX 1-5 %, ≥ 18 years' old)
Patients with severe haemophilia A or B
(FVIII or IX <1 %, ≥ 18 years' old)

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
bone mass/bone density maesurement
Time Frame: 15 minutes
All patients with haemophilia of this study will receive a standardised bone density measurement by using the same dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) device.
15 minutes
blood sample (Vit. D/Calcium)
Time Frame: 10 minutes
The blood samples of all patients with haemophilia will be tested according to the guidelines of the confederation of osteology (DVO). These blood samples are necessary to assess the osteoporosis by measuring the Vitamin-D and Calcium level.
10 minutes

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
haemophilia related clinical data
Time Frame: 10 minutes
All patients with haemophilia record their individual substitution regime and bleeding events in individual patients' diaries. The patients are used to record and submit all necessary information about bleeding events, factor replacement regime. By doing so, the individual treatment regime per week as well as the annual (joint) bleeding rate will be assessed one year retrospectively.
10 minutes
level of physical activity
Time Frame: non determinable
In order to assess the individual level of physical activity, an individual movement profile will be created. For this purpose, the activity of each patient with haemophilia will be recorded by an electronic activity tracker. In addition, the grade of individual physical activity will be assessed on the basis of questionnaires.
non determinable
orthopaedic joint status
Time Frame: 45 minutes
The clinical joint status will be examined in all patients with haemophilia by the World Federation Joint Examination Score and Haemophilia Joint Health Score.
45 minutes
pain condition
Time Frame: 15 minutes
The pain condition will be examined in terms of pressure pain thresholds. By using an algometer device (Wagner Instruments, USA) with a robe area of 1 cm2 the individual pain sensitivity will be measured.
15 minutes
subjective quality of life and subjective physical performance
Time Frame: 10 minutes
The examination of these parameters is carried out by the standardised questionnaires SF-36 (quality of life) and the HEP-Test-Q (subjective physical performance).
10 minutes

Other Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
blood samples
Time Frame: non determinable

Blood samples of all PWH will be tested according to the guidelines of the confederation of osteology (DVO). Additionally, the liver's (GGT, GPT, GOT) and parathyroid glands' (PTH) function will be assessed and patient's will also be tested for testosterone-deficiency (testosterone), diabetes (HbA1c) and multiple myeloma (paracentesis).

Furthermore these blood samples are necessary to define the immune phenotype (including: soluble mediators such as cytokines and growth factors, as well as the cellular immune composition, immune cell subsets and their detailed phenotype) to examine a possible correlation with the severity of osteoporosis.

non determinable
Medical history
Time Frame: 10 minutes
Medical history and pharmacological treatment will be recorded. Based on these parameters the occurrence of secondary osteoporosis will be assessed.
