Abstract
The essential step in the assessment of patients for a probable bleeding disorder is to evaluate the severity of bleeding
symptoms. To improve the compilation and precision of the patients with history of bleeding symptoms, several Bleeding
Assessment Tools (BAT) have been anticipated. A structured questionnaire was approved by the ISTH/SSC-BAT
together in year 2010. In our study, data from 99 normal adults (42 females and 57 males) from Uttarakhand were
analysed this score (ISTH/SSC- BAT). Mean age of the adult population was 29 year. Normal range obtained were 0–3,
0–5 for males and female respectively after removing the outliers. The median BAT score was 0 in adult males and 1 in
adult females. This information may now be used to evaluate the history of bleeding symptoms as a normal or abnormal
in the state of Uttarakhand. We aim to standardize this score system in the population of Uttarakhand in our study and
improve diagnostic accuracy at a low cost and grass root level.
