<p>A hospital-based cross-secti onal analyti cal study was carried out on 53 patients with haemophilia A at the Department of Clinical Haematology, Yangon General Hospital during the period of October 2014 to September 2016. Haemophilia Joint Health Score<br>
(HJHS) and Functi onal Independence Score in Haemophilia (FISH) were used to assess the pati ents’ physical well-being. All pati ents were males with a mean age of 23.18 ± 10.2 years (r = 12-55). Twenty-four pati ents (45.3%) disconti nued their educati on and<br>
among them 66.7% disconti nued due to pain with recurrent bleeding in the joints and 33.3% disconti nued due to other reasons. Seventeen pati ents (32.08%) in this study were students, while another 17 pati ents (32.08%) were workers/employed and 19 pati ents (35.85%) disconti nued working. Out of 19 pati ents who disconti nued working, 84.21% disconti nued due to severity of the disease and 15.79% disconti nued due to personal and religious reasons.</p>
