Immune Thrombocytopenia (ITP) is an acquired autoimmune disorder characterized by a low platelet count resulting from platelet destruction and impaired platelet production.

thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) are an update to the 2011 guidelines. The updates focus on treating patients with ITP without bleeding in both outpatient and inpa-tient settings, including those with newly diagnosed, persistent, and chronic ITP refractory to fi rst-line therapy. Recommendations for therapy include corticosteroids,

“Should adults with newly diagnosed ITP and a platelet count of <30 × 109/L who are asymptomatic or have minor mucocutaneous bleeding be treated with corticosteroids or observation?” Recommendations made by guideline panel members based on evidence for all factors.

Immune Thrombocytopenia (ITP) is a rare autoimmune disorder characterized by a shortage of platelets. Platelets are the part of the blood that the body needs for blood to clot normally. Normally, your immune system helps your body fight off infections and diseases. With ITP, your immune system destroys your body's platelets by mistake.

Outcomes Majority of children (60–75%) have acute ITP that resolves within 2–3 months of diagnosis, regardless of therapy. Approximately, 20% of children go on to have chronic ITP. Fewer than 1% of patients develop an intracranial hemorrhage.

How can patients with Immune Thrombocytopenic Purpura be treated optimally? This guideline is developed for the management of patients with Immune Thrombocytopenic Purpura in children, adults and pregnant mothers.

DIOPATHIC thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP, also known as primary immune thrombocytopenic purpura) is a hematologic disorder for which appropriate diagnostic and treatment strategies are uncertain. In 1994, the American Society of Hematology (ASH) established a panel to produce explicitly developed practice guidelines for the diagnosis

These guidelines focus on the management of immune thrombo-cytopenia (ITP). ITP is an acquired autoimmune disorder charac-terized by a low platelet count resulting from platelet destruction and impaired platelet production.

Immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) is a condition which causes the number of platelets in your blood to be reduced. Platelets are cells that help blood to clot and they help to prevent bleeding and bruising after an injury.
