Dear Namita and Girish,

 

Namaste.

 

Thank you for your email.

 

Medical Background:

 

Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura (ITP)is a blood

disorder characterized by an abnormal decrease in the

number of platelets in the blood. Platelets are cells

in the blood that help stop bleeding. A decrease in

platelets can result in easy bruising, bleeding gums,

and internal bleeding.

 

" Idiopathic " means the cause is unknown.

" Thrombocytopenia " means a decreased number of

platelets in the blood.

" Purpura " refers to the purple discoloring of the

skin, as with a bruise.

 

 

There are two forms of ITP, including the following:

 

- acute thrombocytopenic purpura

This is most commonly seen in young children (2 to 6

years old). The symptoms may follow a viral illness,

such as chickenpox. Acute ITP usually has a very

sudden onset and the symptoms usually disappear in

less than six months (often within a few weeks). The

disorder usually does not recur. Acute ITP is the most

common form of the disorder.

 

- chronic thrombocytopenic purpura

The onset of the disorder can happen at any age, and

the symptoms can last a minimum of six months, or

several years. Adults have this form more often than

children, but it does affect adolescents. Females have

it two to three times more often than males. Chronic

ITP can recur often and requires continual follow-up

care with a blood specialist (hematologist).

 

Idiopathic means no known cause. However, when a cause

can be identified, it may be a result of the

following:

 

medications (including over-the-counter medications)

infection

pregnancy

immune disorders

 

Symptoms:

Normal platelet count is in the range of 150,000 to

450,000. With ITP, the platelet count is less than

100,000. By the time significant bleeding occurs, the

child may have a platelet count of less than 10,000.

The lower the platelet count, the greater the risk of

bleeding.

 

Because platelets help stop bleeding, the symptoms of

ITP are related to increased bleeding. However, each

person may experience symptoms differently.

 

Symptoms may include the following:

 

purpura - the purple color of the skin after blood has

" leaked " under it. A bruise is blood under the skin.

Persons with ITP may have large bruises from no known

trauma. Bruises can appear at the joints of elbows and

knees just from movement.

 

petechia - tiny red dots under the skin that are a

result of very small bleeds.

 

nosebleeds

 

bleeding in the mouth and/or in and around the gums

 

blood in the vomit, urine, or stool

 

bleeding in the head - this is the most dangerous

symptom of ITP. Any head trauma that occurs when there

are not enough platelets to stop the bleeding can be

life threatening.

 

The symptoms of ITP may resemble other Hematology &

Blood Disorders or medical problems. Always consult

your physician for a diagnosis.

 

 

If it is a medication that is the suspected cause,

discontinuation or changing the medication may be

necessary.

 

If infection is the cause for ITP, then treatment of

the infection may result in higher platelet counts.

 

splenectomy

In some cases, the patient’s spleen may need to be

removed since this is the site of platelet

destruction. This is considered more often in persons

with chronic ITP to decrease the rate of platelet

destruction.

 

lifestyle changes, such as the following:

use of protective gear

avoidance of certain activities
