Abstract

We describe a patient with advanced shoulder osteoarthritis who developed a spontaneous hemarthrosis due to a bleeding pseudoaneurysm. This rare cause of intra-articular hemorrhage is important to establish because specific treatment may offer relief and prevent further bleeding.

WHO estimates that half of all patients worldwide are non-adherent to their prescribed medication. The consequences of poor adherence can be catastrophic, on both the individual and population level.

Join our expert panel to discover why you need to understand the drivers of non-adherence in your patients, and how you can optimize medication adherence in your clinics to drastically improve patient outcomes.
