It is crucial to take a detailed medical history and perform a thorough physical examination when faced with any coagulation disorder. Platelet function tests and molecular diagnostic techniques are important additional tools. Regarding treatment, bleeding complications are treated in many cases according to their severity with desmopressin, antifibrinolytic agents, platelet transfusion, recombinant activated factor VII, and thrombopoietin receptor agonists.
