SHARE – workpackage 5: evidence based recommendations for diagnosis and treatment of the antiphospholipid syndrome
Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS), either primary or secondary to other paediatric rheumatic diseases, is rare in children, but it can lead to significant morbidity. Evidence-based guidelines are sparse and management is mostly based on physician’s experience. Consequently, treatment regimens differ throughout Europe. In 2012, a European initiative called SHARE (Single Hub and Access point for paediatric Rheumatology in Europe) was launched to optimize and disseminate diagnostic and management regimens in Europe for children and young adults with rheumatic diseases such as APS.
