Abstract
The hemophiliac knows when he is bleeding. When such a patient is aware of bleeding and consults a primary care physician, the episode usually has been of sufficient duration and is severe enough to demand prompt treatment with high-potency materials. Needless delay results in further complications and additional costly treatment. The type of deficiency can usually be ascertained from the patient or family member. If there is no history of an inhibitor, replacement therapy should be initiated promptly.
