Von Willebrand Factor, Plasma Test

The Von Willebrand Factor, Plasma Test is a laboratory test that measures the level of von Willebrand factor (vWF) in the blood plasma. Von Willebrand factor is a protein that plays a crucial role in blood clotting by helping platelets stick together and adhere to the blood vessel walls.

Individuals with von Willebrand disease may experience prolonged bleeding after injury, surgery, or dental work, as well as easy bruising and nosebleeds.

By measuring the level of von Willebrand factor in the blood plasma, healthcare providers can assess the severity of the disorder and develop an appropriate treatment plan for the patient.
