Efficacy of Strength Training in Improving Elbow Range of Motion and Function in Adults With Hemophilia

This is a research study of adults with hemophilia that have limitations in elbow joint motion that is the result of bleeding into the joint.

People with hemophilia who have bleeding into their elbow joint may have limitations in elbow joint movement and pain in the joint. This research is being done to determine the effect a strength training program has on the amount of movement people with hemophilia and elbow joint disease have.
