Recommendations for the Clinical Approach to Immune Thrombocytopenia: Spanish ITP Working Group (GEPTI).

Primary immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is a complex autoimmune disease whose hallmark is a deregulation of cellular and humoral immunity leading to increased destruction and reduced production of platelets. The heterogeneity of presentation and clinical course hampers personalized approaches for diagnosis and management. In 2021, the Spanish ITP Group (GEPTI) of the Spanish Society of Hematology and Hemotherapy (SEHH) updated a consensus document that had been launched in 2011.

Assessment of coagulation assays on Roche Cobas t711 analyzer: performance and clinical implications.

Objectives: We performed an analytical assessment of five coagulation tests [i.e. prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT), fibrinogen, thrombin time (TT) and D-dimer] on the Roche Cobas t711 analyzer and a comparison study with the methodology in use at our laboratory (i.

Primary and secondary immune thrombocytopenia (ITP): Time for a rethink.

There are not many publications that provide a holistic view of the management of primary and secondary ITP as a whole, reflecting the similarities and differences between the two. Given the lack of major clinical trials, we believe that comprehensive reviews are much needed to guide the diagnosis and treatment of ITP today. Therefore, our review addresses the contemporary diagnosis and treatment of ITP in adult patients.

Recommendations on the Management of Patients with Immune Thrombocytopenia (ITP) in the Context of SARS-CoV-2 Infection and Vaccination: Consensus Guidelines from a Spanish ITP Expert Group.

Primary immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is an acquired autoimmune disease with highly variable presentation, characteristics, and clinical course. Thrombocytopenia is a common complication of many viral infections, including SARS-CoV-2. In addition, both de novo ITP and exacerbation of ITP after vaccination against SARS-CoV-2 have been reported.
