blödningsriskkort

Swedish to English Medical Medical (general)
Is there any official English equivalent of this?

Vid blödarsjuka rekommenderas man beställa ett blödningsriskkort från koagulationsmottagningen där det står vilken typ av blödarsjuka man har, vilken svårighetsgrad och vilken behandling som behövs.

Bleeding Disorder Alert Card

Each country probably has its own version of this.
Ireland has Bleeding Disorder Alert Cards
http://www.hse.ie/eng/services/news/newsarchive/2012archive/...

The international organisation WFH has International Medical/Identity Cards for people with bleeding disorders.
http://www.wfh.org/en/page.aspx?pid=876

I suggest that something containing the word "alert" would be appropriate.
Example sentence:

Severe Bleeding Disorder Alert Cards have been issued to persons with severe Haemophilia to assist hospital staff to ensure these patients get immediate appropriate treatment for their condition in hospital Emergency Departments.

The World Federation of Hemophilia International Identity Card has been designed to be unobtrusive but available to provide information to others in the case of an emergency.

agree Deane Goltermann : I'll go with Tania here... this reference clearly states other bleeding disorders are more common than hemophilia, so you need a more general term. (http://www.hematology.org/patients/blood-disorders/5219.aspx...
