New algorithm aims to stop dangerous bleeding in VWD patients
NCT ID NCT06651255
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a step-by-step care plan (algorithm) can lower the chance of another serious stomach or nose bleed in people with von Willebrand disease. About 66 adults who have had such a bleed will be randomly assigned to either the new plan or standard care. The goal is to see if the algorithm helps prevent bleeds from coming back.
