Can anyone please help me make a genetic disease pamphlet,specifically hemophilia? |
pamphlet should include the cause,signs and symptoms,genetic testing,genetic testing techniques,population risk,social and ethical implications,connection to human genome project.. help.. i;m still in high school.. i really don;t know what to do If you're going to be a future doctor as your alias implies, you need to learn how to do research on your own. This is far easier than it was back in my days. Start by googling hemophilia, use webmd.com, and wikipedia. Those should give you enough information to help you out. Hemophilias are common hereditary bleeding disorders caused by deficiencies of either clotting factor VIII or IX. The extent of factor deficiency determines the probability and severity of bleeding. Bleeding into deep tissues or joints usually develops within hours of trauma. The diagnosis is suspected in a patient with an elevated PTT and normal PT and platelet count; it is confirmed by specific factor assays. Treatment includes replacement of the deficient factor if acute bleeding is suspected, confirmed, or likely to develop (eg, before surgery). |
