Quality of life in patients with hereditary angioedema: Assessment and Management

Abstract

Hereditary angioedema (HAE) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by recurrent episodes of severe swelling in various parts of the body. These episodes can significantly impact the quality of life (QoL) of patients due to physical discomfort, psychological distress, and social limitations. This study aims to assess the quality of life in patients with HAE and evaluate the effectiveness of various management strategies in improving QoL. Through a combination of standardized questionnaires and clinical evaluations, this research provides insights into the challenges faced by HAE patients and the potential benefits of targeted therapeutic interventions.
