This study aims to examine the real-life experience and impact of using emicizumab in a cohort of patients with haemophilia and inhibitors, who were prescribed emicizumab as part of the early access to medicine schema (EAMS),those who have been in clinical trials and those now receiving emicizumab as part of routine haemophilia care. The Investigators also intend to capture the impact of emicizumab use on the lives of close family members (parents/carers/children/partners/siblings). Each participant and his family members will be deemed a study 'dyad'. This is a prospective, observational cohort qualitative research study to be conducted among patients using emicizumab in routine clinical practice. The study is designed to allow English-speaking patients and their families to tell their own life stories through narrative accounts. The narratives represent a true sharing of experiences and therefore offers insight into how these patients and families cope with haemophilia.
