Description
Ling-Yi Guo, leading seven colleagues, published a 2026 scoping review of emergency department care for people with bleeding disorders. Guidelines call for clotting treatment within 30 to 60 minutes, yet delays are common. The team searched five databases to March 2025 under a pre-registered protocol, screening studies on barriers and improvement efforts.
Seventeen of 3,541 studies qualified. Barriers included weak electronic record tools, missing standard protocols, limited staff education, and poor communication with haematology teams. Reported treatment delays ran from well over an hour to more than five hours in some studies. Combined record changes plus education improved times in every intervention study, while patient and caregiver voices were rarely included, a gap the authors highlight.
