Hemostasis refers to the process of blood clotting, one of
the body’s most critical functions. Too much results in painful
and potentially dangerous blood clots, while too little can
lead to excessive bleeding.
The Duke Hemostasis & Thrombosis Center evaluates,
diagnoses, and treats patients suffering from an array of
hemorrhagic and thrombotic disorders that include:
- Clotting factor deficiencies, such as hemophilia
(acquired and inherited)
- Hypercoagulable evaluations
- Immune-mediated thrombocytopenia (ITP)
- Inherited and acquired platelet-number disorders
- Inherited and acquired platelet dysfunction, such as
“lazy platelets”
- Therapy-related hemorrhagic complications
- Thrombosis (arterial and venous)
- Von Willebrand disease
A foremost referral center for patients suffering from
disorders of this kind, Duke’s Hemostasis & Thrombosis
Center houses a number of specialized clinical care
programs.
