Background
The World Federation of Hemophilia (WFH) World Bleeding Disorders Registry (WBDR) is designed to fill gaps in hemophilia care and knowledge that exist globally. The WBDR is a tool for clinicians to collect real world data on patient clinical care and quality of life, and a tool to empower people with hemophilia (PWH) to manage their own care and treatment. The WFH will be introducing myWBDR – a mobile application for PWH participating in the WBDR through the participating hemophilia treatment centers.
Aims
To collect bleed and other patient-reported outcome (PRO) data in the WBDR.
Methods
myWBDR is designed to track bleeds, associated pain, treatments, and health status using EQ-5D-5L and the Patient Reported Outcomes, Burdens, and Experiences (PROBE) questionnaires (Table). Initially, myWBDR will be available in English, French, Hindi, Spanish, and Vietnamese.
Results
myWBDR is undergoing field testing in non-WBDR PWH and will follow with a testing cohort of PWH within the WBDR. Implementation will be regional, starting with 5 countries (2 regions) in Q2 2021. myWBDR is a simple tool, allowing users to record accurate bleeds and treatment in under 1 minute. The inclusion of the EQ-5D-5L and PROBE questionnaires, both available in a large number of languages, will allow users to track changes in their health status over time. Both myWBDR and myPROBE include an off-line feature so data can be entered at anytime and offer simple data visualization on bleeds (number, location), level of pain and health-status.
Conclusions
Integration of PRO via the myWBDR will allow PWH to play an active role in their care and treatment. With the 360-degree data, researchers can better understand hemophilia and work to improve quality of care and treatment for PWH around the world. A data dashboard for PWH to visualize and compare their personal data is in development.
