   What is von Willebrand disease (vWD)?

   • Von Willebrand disease (VWD) is a blood disorder in which the blood does not clot properly. Blood contains many proteins that help the blood clot when needed. One of these proteins is called von Willebrand factor (VWF). People with VWD either have a low level of VWF in their blood or the VWF protein doesn't work the way it should.

   What is von Willebrand factor (vWF)?

   • One of these proteins is called von Willebrand factor (VWF). People with VWD either have a low level of VWF in their blood or the VWF protein doesn't work the way it should. Normally, when a person is injured and starts to bleed, the VWF in the blood attaches to small blood cells called platelets.
