N2 - Platelet count, prothrombin time, and activated partial thromboplastin time provide a baseline to evaluate patients with known coagulopathy, as well as present an opportunity to diagnose disease in previously symptom free patients. Current hematologic management of patients with Von Willebrand's disease uses heated Factor VIII that allows patients to undergo orthognathic surgery without significant risk of disease transmission from banked blood products.
