Dr. Maha Othman, Co-Chairman SSC on Disseminated intravascular coagulopathy at International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis, shared a post on LinkedIn:

“Delighted to have had the opportunity to develop a team-based learning course module with ISTH!

The focus: “VWD in Women and Pregnancy” – an important and often under-recognized topic.

Designed especially for early-career physicians around the world

Free for International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis (ISTH) members!

Grateful to be part of this project and excited to see its impact!”

Quoting ISTH’s post:

“It’s time for another spotlight on our next team-based learning course module: VWD in women and pregnancy, taught by Dr. Maha Othman of Canada.

Learners will:

Describe a guidance-based approach for investigation of a patient with heavy menstrual bleeding
Describe the unique diagnostic and management challenges of VWD in women and during pregnancy including developing a delivery plan and appropriate prophylactic and therapeutic hemostatic strategies
Apply a multidisciplinary, patient-centered approach to managing bleeding risk in pregnancy and delivery in a woman with VWD
Develop an appropriate laboratory investigation plan for diagnosing and monitoring VWD in pregnancy
