Objectives: The ISTH bleeding assessment tool (ISTH-BAT) is developed for standardization of bleeding symptoms in bleeding disorders. The aim of this study is to apply this bleeding score for FXIII deficient patients and its relation to the frequency and severity of symptoms.Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 63 patients with severe FXIII deficiency were evaluated for the assessment of bleeding score according to the standard ISTH-BAT questionnaire. All patients were registered at two major thrombosis and hemostasis centers in Iran affiliated to Zahedan University of medical sciences (50 patients) and Shiraz University of medical sciences (13 patients).Results: Significant correlations between the bleeding score and number of symptoms (r = 0.668, P < 0.001) and with a number of severe symptoms (r = 0.938, P < 0.001) were detected. There was no significant relationship between the mean bleeding score and CNS bleeding (P = 0.390).Conclusion: The ISTH-BAT score is an acceptable bleeding assessment tool for standardization and evaluation of patients with FXIII deficiency.
