key protein for clotting is either scarce or malfunctions. It also carries factor VIII, which aids in the stimulation of blood cells for clotting. The two work closely together to create a clot. Patients with a low amount of von Willebrand factor have decreased levels of factor VIII, a vital clotting agent.
