Summary

It seems reasonable to assume that patients who present significant bleeding symptoms may have different quality of platelets than those without bleeding. This question was addressed in a study that examined platelet function in adult ITP patients, which try to determine whether this correlated with bleeding risk. Previous reports have suggested that measuring platelet function may help define patients at highest risk of bleeding. In addition, Middelburg and colleagues corrected platelet function for quartile of platelet count, using \<32×10\^9/L as the lowest cohort and \>132×10\^9/L as the top quartile. They demonstrated that increased platelet reactivity (as measured by flow cytometry) was associated with decreased risk of bleeding but particularly for those patients with the lowest platelet counts. Further studies in a larger cohort are needed to confirm this correlation. Our study aimed at standardizing a prediction model to evaluate the bleeding risk of adult ITP patients with the use of platelet function tests.
