Which clotting factor is deficient in Hemophilia A?

Hemophilia A is an X-linked, hereditary bleeding disorder caused by the absence or defect of a blood clotting protein, Factor VIII. As a result, when a person with hemophilia A has a bleeding episode, the bleeding may be prolonged due to the body's inability to form blood clots. Patients who are affected with hemophilia A experience frequent spontaneous bleeding, most commonly into their joints and soft tissues, with bleeding into vital organs that may ... be life-threatening. Bleeding episodes may be painful, and over time, recurrent joint bleeding may result in debilitating destruction of the joints. Currently, patients with hemophilia A are dependent on injections of Factor VIII produced by genetic engineering or purified from human plasma, to help control a bleeding episode. It is estimated that approximately 50,000 individuals worldwide are affected with hemophilia A. Hemophilia A - Clotting Factor VIII Hemophilia B - Clotting Factor IX Hemophilia C - Clotting Factor XI
