1-Deamino-8-D-arginine vasopressin and cryoprecipitate in variant von Willebrand disease. 1985

W T Hanna, and J Slywka, and J Dent, and Z M Ruggeri, and T S Zimmerman

The effect of infusing DDAVP and cryoprecipitate either singly or in combination was studied in a patient with variant von Willebrand disease. Both DDAVP and cryoprecipitate caused only partial correction in the hemostatic defect when used as a single agent. A combination of DDAVP and cryoprecipitate induced a complete correction of the hemostatic defect as well as factor VIII related properties.

D003894	Deamino Arginine Vasopressin	A synthetic analog of the pituitary hormone, ARGININE VASOPRESSIN. Its action is mediated by the VASOPRESSIN receptor V2. It has prolonged antidiuretic activity, but little pressor effects. It also modulates levels of circulating FACTOR VIII and VON WILLEBRAND FACTOR.

D005169	Factor VIII	Factor VIII of blood coagulation. Antihemophilic factor that is part of the factor VIII/von Willebrand factor complex. Factor VIII is produced in the liver and acts in the intrinsic pathway of blood coagulation. It serves as a cofactor in factor X activation and this action is markedly enhanced by small amounts of thrombin.

D005340	Fibrinogen	Plasma glycoprotein clotted by thrombin, composed of a dimer of three non-identical pairs of polypeptide chains (alpha, beta, gamma) held together by disulfide bonds. Fibrinogen clotting is a sol-gel change involving complex molecular arrangements: whereas fibrinogen is cleaved by thrombin to form polypeptides A and B, the proteolytic action of other enzymes yields different fibrinogen degradation products.

D014842	von Willebrand Diseases	Group of hemorrhagic disorders in which the VON WILLEBRAND FACTOR is either quantitatively or qualitatively abnormal. They are usually inherited as an autosomal dominant trait though rare kindreds are autosomal recessive. Symptoms vary depending on severity and disease type but may include prolonged bleeding time, deficiency of factor VIII, and impaired platelet adhesion.
