What is the practice at your institution for Ptl pt with type 1 vwf?
What labs do u draw? What levels do u want before neuraxial? Do u give ddavp prior to any neuraxial despite the levels?
If no time to give ddavp prior to urgent section, would u attempt neuraxial on pt with "acceptable" factor 8 and vwf:rco levels? What if she was a known difficult airway?
This came up on our labor service recently.
Thanks!!
