Bleeding disorders?
DefinitionBleeding disorders are a group of conditions in which there is a problem with the body's blood clotting process. These disorders can lead to heavy and prolonged bleeding after an injury. Bleeding can also begin on its own.See also:Acquired platelet function defectsCongenital platelet function defectsCongenital antithrombin III deficiencyCongenital protein C or S deficiencyDisseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC)Drug-induced immune thrombocytopeniaFactor II deficiencyFactor V deficiencyFactor VII deficiencyFactor X deficiencyFactor XIIdeficiencyHemophilia AHemophilia BIdiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP)Von Willebrand's disease (type I and type II)Alternative NamesCoagulopathyCauses, incidence, and risk factorsNormal blood clotting involves as many as 20 different plasma proteins, which are known as blood clotting or coagulation factors. These factors act together with other chemicals to form a substance called fibrin that stops bleeding.Problems can occur when certain coagulation factors are low or missing. Bleeding problems can range from mild to severe.Some bleeding disorders are present at birth and are passed through families (inherited). Others develop from:Illnesses such as vitamin K deficiency or severe liver diseaseTreatments such as the use of drugs to stop blood clots (anticoagulants) or the long-term use of antibioticsBleeding disorders can also result from having poorly working or too few of the blood cells that promote blood clotting (platelets). These disorders can also be either inherited or picked up (acquired). The side effects of certain drugs often lead to the acquired forms.SymptomsAbnormal menstrual bleedingBleeding into jointsExcessive bruisingHeavy bleedingNosebleedsWhich problems occur depends on the specific bleeding disorder.Signs and testsComplete blood count (CBC)Bleeding timePartial thromboplastin time (PTT)Platelet aggregation testProthrombin time (PT)TreatmentTreatment depends on the type of disorder. It may include:Factor replacementFresh frozen plasma transfusionPlatelet transfusionOther therapiesExpectations (prognosis)The outcome also depends on the disorder. Most primary bleeding disorders can be managed. Those due to diseases, such as DIC, depend on how well the disease is treated.ComplicationsBleeding in the brainSevere bleeding (usually from the gastrointestinal tract or injuries)Other complications can occur, depending on the disorder.Calling your health care providerCall your health care provider if you notice any unusual or severe bleeding.PreventionPrevention depends on the specific disorder.ReferencesKessler C.
