The bone marrow produces adequate platelets but the body antibodies damages and destroys the platelets or makes use of the platelets. The spleen comprises too many platelets in its organ tissues.Most cases of thrombocytopenia normally have no symptoms.Low platelets are often observed on a routine blood test.Mild to severe bleeding causes the principal signs and symptoms of thrombocytopenia.People who have low platelets also may have bleeding from the nose and gums or monthly mensesBleeding can happen: Internal bleeding External bleedingDiagnosis Full blood count Blood smear Bone marrow testsTreatment for low platelets is dependent on its cause and severity.The main purpose of treatment is to prevent death and disability brought about by bleeding.If the low platelets disorder is mild, there is no need for treatment.Other treatments Steroids Immunosupressants Transfusion of platelets SplenectomyTABLE OF CONTENT Introduction Chapter 1 Thrombocytopenia Chapter 2 Causes Chapter 3 Symptoms Chapter 4 Diagnosis Chapter 5 Treatment Chapter 6 Prognosis Chapter 7 Immune Thrombocytopenia Chapter 8 High Platelets Epilogue...9781005177676_Kenneth Keelibro_electonico_c00874a0-a8b7-3670-ab14-c589e4c43de2_9781005177676;9781005177676_9781005177676Kenneth KeeInglésMéxicohttps://getbook.kobo.com/koboid-prod-public/smashwords-epub-b523a070-f0ca-44cb-bc0f-b84b3ba45340.epub2022-05-08T00:00:00+00:00Kenneth Kee
