Episode 155: Immune Thrombocytopenic Purpura Series, Pt 1- First Line Management
About this episode
This episode delves into the management of Immune Thrombocytopenic Purpura following diagnosis.
This week, we go back to Classical Hematology! We previously discussed the initial workup and management of ITP in Episode 009, but now it’s time to dig deeper. What do we do once we make the diagnosis? How do we approach management when we have a new diagnosis? Content: - Refresher on diagnosis of ITP - Response criteria - What warrants a hospital admission vs. outpatient management? - What is our approach to initial inpatient management? - When is it safe to discharge a patient from the hospital? ** Want to review the show notes for this episode and others?
