SUMMARY:🟥 Member Webinar : Hemophilia Alliance Hosts - A Webinar From Octapharma - Prophylaxis in VWD: Iron as a Metric of Success at Healing
DESCRIPTION:Date: Wednesday\, October 15th\, 2025\nTime: 2:00pm – 3:00pm ET \n \n  \n  \n \nWEBINAR TOPIC: \nProphylaxis in VWD: Iron as a Metric of Success at Healing. \nWEBINAR SUMMARY: \nA presentation on rethinking prophylaxis in VWD through a lens of healing and iron status. \nThis presentation explores a multidimensional approach to bleeding disorders\, with a focus on von Willebrand Disease (VWD)\, the evolving role of prophylaxis\, and iron deficiency as a measurable indicator of treatment success. By reframing bleeding disorders as healing disorders\, we challenge traditional paradigms and highlight the importance of patient-centered care. \nThrough clinical insights and emerging data\, we examine how iron status can serve as a proxy for bleeding control\, and how prophylactic strategies are reshaping outcomes across all types of VWD. This session invites clinicians\, researchers\, and educators to consider new metrics and models that better reflect the lived experiences of patients and the true impact of therapeutic interventions. \nAUDIENCE: \nAll HTC Staff. \nSPEAKER: \nAmber Federizo\, DNP \nBorn and raised in the rural heart of Nevada\, she has long been driven by a deep commitment to serving those who are often overlooked or underserved. For over a decade\, she provided compassionate diagnosis and treatment to patients of all ages at Nevada’s Hemophilia Treatment Center (HTC)\, with a particular focus on addressing the unique challenges faced by women in the bleeding disorders community. Her unwavering dedication and authentic approach have brought light and hope to vulnerable populations both domestically and internationally. \nIn recognition of her impactful work\, Amber was honored in 2018 as the Humanitarian of the Year by the National Hemophilia Foundation (now known as the National Bleeding Disorders Foundation). Through research\, education\, and advocacy\, she continues to forge new pathways and expand opportunities for individuals and families affected by bleeding disorders.
