About us
The International Hereditary Angioedema (HAE) Nurses Organisation (IHNO) was established in May 2013, during the 8th C1-Inhibitor Deficiency Workshop, in Budapest, Hungary.
All participating nurses have an extensive experience with patients with Hereditary Angioedema (C1 inhibitor deficiency) in our countries. The main purpose of this initiative is to increase the impact of expert nurses on patient management and implementation of new treatment protocols. Professor Henrietta Farkas from Hungary kindly agreed to become the Honorary President of IHNO.
