Von Willebrand disease (VWD) is the most common bleeding disorder, but unfortunately it often remains overlooked and undiagnosed. The diagnosis is a complex process, and both diagnosis and management of the disease are interdisciplinary tasks.1
On vwdtest.com/hu, Prof. Corrales and Prof. Berntorp provide you and your patients with helpful resources and tools to support the evaluation of bleeding symptoms and diagnosis of VWD. The tools include a quick online bleeding test that helps when assessing bleeding symptoms and a downloadable menstrual chart for your patients with heavy menstrual bleeding to monitor their blood loss.
Management of VWD is always a multidisciplinary effort. Here, you will find expert advice from Prof. Corrales, Prof. Berntorp and their colleagues on how to best manage your patients with VWD. They also prepared a few case reports of patients with undiagnosed VWD: bleeding after tooth extraction, heavy menstrual bleeding, and easy bruising and frequent nose bleeds. These cases illustrate typical symptoms of patients with VWD and the basic work-up required for a diagnosis of the condition.
To learn more about VWD and the global awareness campaign around vwdtest.com/hu, we recommend that you have a look at our recent publication.
