Clinical InformationClinical

  • Vitamin K Deficiency

    a nutritional condition produced by a deficiency of vitamin k in the diet, characterized by an increased tendency to hemorrhage (hemorrhagic disorders). such bleeding episodes may be particularly severe in newborn infants. (from cecil textbook of medicine, 19th ed, p1182)

  • Vitamin K Deficiency Bleeding

    hemorrhage caused by vitamin k deficiency.

Patient EducationClinical

Bleeding Disorders

Normally, if you get hurt, your body forms a blood clot to stop the bleeding. For blood to clot, your body needs cells called platelets and proteins known as clotting factors. If you have a bleeding disorder, you either do not have enough platelets or clotting factors or they don't work the way they should.

Footnotes

[1] Not chronic - A diagnosis code that does not fit the criteria for chronic condition (duration, ongoing medical treatment, and limitations) is considered not chronic. Some codes designated as not chronic are acute conditions. Other diagnosis codes that indicate a possible chronic condition, but for which the duration of the illness is not specified in the code description (i.e., we do not know the condition has lasted 12 months or longer) also are considered not chronic.
