  • Research summary

    This study is a qualitative study exploring the lived experience of adolescent boys with Haemophilia, a genetic blood disorder. Interpretative phenomenological analysis will be used to gain an understanding of the personal accounts of adolescent boys with Haemophilia. It is hoped that the current study will address the lack of psychological research in this area and will contribute to a clinical understanding of Haemophilia in order to help healthcare staff better support people with this condition.
