Mass media information can facilitate early diagnose of hereditary angioedema: Case series study
Journal Title: Global Journal of Medical and Clinical Case Reports - Year 2018, Vol 5, Issue 3
Abstract
Background: A patient’s motivation for consulting a physician is paramount to the first steps of achieving an early diagnosis of hereditary angioedema (HAE). Understanding what triggers this motivation can help in the design of strategies to increase the number of visits to a specialist physician following early symptoms of HAE. The aim of the present study was to identify the reasons that led patients to seek the opinion of an HAE expert physician.
