description | BACKGROUND: Specialty societies, such as the International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis (ISTH), are a key source of support for clinical and scientific communities, through the provision of educational activities, tools, and resources to support evidence‐based care and high‐quality, relevant basic science and clinical research. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to identify areas where the thrombosis and hemostasis (T&H) community is facing challenges and could benefit from the support of ISTH. METHODS: A 3‐phase, mixed‐methods study consisting of semistructured individual interviews (phase 1), an online survey (phase 2), and discussion groups (phase 3) was conducted on the challenges experienced by the T&H community. Participants included physicians, clinical and basic science researchers, residents, fellows, students, and industry representatives. Qualitative data were analyzed using thematic analysis. Quantitative data were analyzed using frequency tables and chi‐squares. RESULTS: The study included 468 participants in interviews (n = 45), surveys (n = 404), and discussion groups (n = 19). Nine themes emerged that describe areas where the T&H community may benefit from additional support. Three areas were related to diagnosis and testing: thrombosis risk assessment, genetic testing, and diagnosis of von Willebrand disease (VWD). Another 3 were related to treatment decision making: use of anticoagulants with certain patients, preventive treatments in bleeding disorders, and VWD treatment. The remaining 3 were related to research: collaboration with/among researchers, collaboration between teams to collect data from human subjects, and promotion of basic science research. CONCLUSIONS: This study provides a comprehensive picture of priorities within the T&H community, which should inform the ISTH in its future interventions, including educational offerings and networking opportunities. |
