Clinics in Haematology, 1985
Thrombocytopenia is a common haematological abnormality in pregnancy which has important implications for both mother and fetus. It may occur as part of the pathophysiology of pregnancy itself, but in many cases pregnancy is superimposed on a background of haematological disease.

Emergency Medicine Clinics of North America, 1993
Emergency physicians often must evaluate patients with thrombocytopenia. Once recognized, the initial concern is for evaluating the patient's hemostasis. Prompt diagnosis and early intervention may be life saving. This article reviews platelet function and kinetics and presents the pathophysiology and clinical and laboratory findings of a number of ...

Thrombocytopenia and infections
Expert Review of Hematology, 2016Acquired thrombocytopenia recognizes a myriad of causes. Among these, infectious diseases play a relevant role since a low platelet count is commonplace along with other abnormal laboratory data. Areas covered: This narrative review, after a brief presentation of the possible pathogenic mechanisms, is focused on the most prevalent infections associated

A 40 year old woman visits her general practitioner with symptoms of dyspepsia and increasing tiredness. On a routine blood count, her platelet count is noted to be 40×109/L with normal haemoglobin and white cell count. She has no medical history and is not taking any medication. Clinical examination reveals no bruises or bleeding. Ask about recent or

Seminars in Hematology, 2006
Thrombocytopenia in the newborn period can signify an inherited platelet disorder. Congenital amegakaryocytic thrombocytopenia (CAMT) and thrombocytopenia with absent radii (TAR) share features of isolated thrombocytopenia, reduced or absent marrow megakaryocytes, impaired responsiveness to thrombopoietin (TPO), and high plasma TPO levels.

Journal of Internal Medicine, 1972
AbstractAn analysis of 126 cases of drug‐induced thrombocytopenia shows that oral diuretics (52 cases) and quinine/quinidine drugs (26 cases) are the entirely predominant causes. Drug‐induced thrombocytopenia has a favourable prognosis, and remission occurs usually within 1–2 weeks; 70% of the cases are women. The incidence of thrombocytopenia after 50

GESTATIONAL THROMBOCYTOPENIA AND IMMUNE THROMBOCYTOPENIAS IN PREGNANCY
Hematology/Oncology Clinics of North America, 2000Appropriate management of thrombocytopenia in the pregnant patient is important for the well-being of both mother and fetus. The healthy-appearing mother with mild thrombocytopenia may have either gestational benign thrombocytopenia, which does not produce fetal thrombocytopenia, or immune-mediated thrombocytopenia, which can produce fetal ...
