Desmopressin (DDAVP) use in patients with von Willebrand disease: A single‐centre retrospective review of test response and clinical outcomes

open access: yesHaemophilia, Volume 29, Issue 4, Page 1095-1103, July 2023., 2023
Abstract Introduction Peri‐procedural management of von Willebrand disease (VWD) utilizes von Willebrand factor (VWF) concentrates or desmopressin (DDAVP) to increase VWF levels. DDAVP is safe, easily administered, and inexpensive. Currently, a consensus definition for adequate DDAVP response is lacking, and outcomes of peri‐procedural DDAVP use in VWD
