Statistics by Country for Von Willebrand disease
|
About these extrapolations of prevalence and incidence statistics for Von Willebrand disease:
These statistics are calculated extrapolations of various prevalence or incidence rates
against the populations of a particular country or region.
The statistics used for prevalence/incidence of Von Willebrand disease are typically based on US, UK, Canadian or Australian statistics.
This extrapolation calculation is automated and does not take into account any genetic, cultural, environmental, social, racial or other differences
across the various countries and regions for which the extrapolated Von Willebrand disease statistics below refer to.
As such, these extrapolations may be highly inaccurate (especially for developing or third-world countries) and only give a general indication (or even a meaningless indication)
as to the actual prevalence or incidence of Von Willebrand disease in that region.
About prevalence and incidence statistics in general for Von Willebrand disease: The word 'prevalence' of Von Willebrand disease usually means the estimated population of people who are managing Von Willebrand disease at any given time (i.e. people with Von Willebrand disease). The term 'incidence' of Von Willebrand disease means the annual diagnosis rate, or the number of new cases of Von Willebrand disease diagnosed each year (i.e. getting Von Willebrand disease). Hence, these two statistics types can differ: a short disease like flu can have high annual incidence but low prevalence, but a life-long disease like diabetes has a low annual incidence but high prevalence. For more information see about prevalence and incidence statistics. |
Prevalance of Von Willebrand disease: estimated 3 million mostly undiagnosed
Prevalance Rate for Von Willebrand disease: approx 1 in 90 or 1.10% or 3 million people in USA [about data]
Extrapolation of Prevalence Rate of Von Willebrand disease to Countries and Regions: The following table attempts to extrapolate the above prevalence rate for Von Willebrand disease to the populations of various countries and regions. As discussed above, these prevalence extrapolations for Von Willebrand disease are only estimates and may have limited relevance to the actual prevalence of Von Willebrand disease in any region:
