Thrombocytopenia:
Treatment
(In A Page: Pediatric Signs and Symptoms)
- Dependent upon etiology, severity, and presence of acute bleeding
- ITP
–Bone marrow exam before treatment with steroids
–Treatment with IVIG or WinRho does not need bone marrow exam
–Platelet transfusion is ineffective in ITP but should be considered at counts <20,000 in the neonate or with life-threatening hemorrhage
–Severe injury is unlikely if count >10,000
–Treatment does not hasten resolution of ITP
–About 90% of children have resolution in 3–6 months
–Older girls more likely to become chronic
- Acute, isolated thrombocytopenia is almost never malignancy
–Marrow exam should be done in children with chronic or complex illness or with no response to therapy
