A twinning action for improving the medical care
of haemophiliac patients in the West Algerian region
Algeria counts 33 millions inhabitants, about 1200 haemophiliacs, and one recognised haemophilia centre in Algiers. Networking for medical
care and proximity treatment were the main recommendations of a consensus conference, organised in 2002, in Algiers, under the auspices
of the Algerian Health Ministry to alleviate the difficulties in care, diagnosis, follow-up and treatment availability for haemophiliacs.
In 2005, a medical twinning started between the Strasbourg CRTH and the Haematology departments of Oran and Sidi-Bel-Abbès hospitals
to improve both the existing medical care and the West network organisation. Within this framework, the following activities were organised:
(a) Four scientific medical meetings (state of medical care and regional patients’ committee, prophylaxis, orthopaedics, inhibitors) at the
university/hospitals of Oran, Sidi-Bel-Abbès and Tlemcen;(b) Training courses(haematologists, orthopaedists) at Strasbourg hospital;
(c) Multidisciplinary consultations for medication and orthopaedic therapeutic evaluation in Oran and Sidi-Bel-Abbès hospitals.
In addition, the World Federation of Haemophilia organised a meeting (Algiers, 03/2007) to support the Algerian National Haemophilia
Association and regional committees.

N. MESLI 4, Z., BENHADJI-ZOUAOUI 3, and H. TOUHAMI 2 The existing twinning enabled the Strasbourg CRTH to co-operate in the ongoing national training programme for haemophilia care which 1 Hemophilia Regional Center, University Hospital Hautepierre, 67098 STRASBOURG, FRANCE started in 2007 under the auspices of the Algerian Health Ministry, coordinated by a national medical committee and supported by the Novo 2,3,4 Haematology services, University Hospitals of ORAN, SIDI BEL ABBES and TLEMCEN, ALGERIA Nordisk Foundation.
These activities aimed to organise haemophilia care by setting-up: (1) regional haemophilia centres ensuring diagnosis, care and follow-up and (2) proximity treatment in accordance with the national health policy.
