Good Lectures just my inputs1. The triggers of platelet transfusion are only for prophylactic transfusions in oncology patients where thrombocytopenia associated with chemotherapy not for routine clinical transfusions. 2. In routine platelet defects do not require any transfusion because of high degree of functional capabilities and anatomical numbers. therefore, platelets need to dip really big way to create bleeding. 3. The severe bleeding is life threatening bleed in actuality or potential such as neurosurgical. 4. GP Ib or IIB/IIIa defects if transfused develop antibody to these GP and result in platelet refractoriness.

[@samuelsitton4929]

i have been studying from your videos they are great help :) but on this one i have a question you talk about transfusion when platelets reach under 50 or 10 thousand on glanzmann minue 19:40 but if im not mistaking platelets count should come out normal so my question is ?is there a test to know how many functionals ones you have or should i assume you keep loosing them through insignificant bleedings and if so shouldnt treatment be when symptoms are present rather than based on the count? even tho 10,000 of course we would transfuse..

[@evgeniagasumova4487]

As far as I am aware aboutRhoGam is Anti D for pregnant. they are monoclonal Anti D for IM use for ITP need to give polyclonal Anti D which is derived from human plasma and given IV.Doses are also different. I think Anti D should be better option than using brand names

I have a platelet function defect. I've had 3 nosebleeds this week. It's insane. I bruise easy.

[@myapurple2492]

When my platelets drop I feel really rough and get bruises, petichae etc. I eat papaya, pomegranate, pumpkin and Marmite daily along with some lean protein and plenty of water. It helps me as I guess I'm giving my body the nutrients it needs to function well. I also take an iron supplement as I tend to get anaemic too. 😉

[@jeanwarech4982]

Thank you much Dr Bolin! I have Essential Thrombocytosis. I know it’s an MPN. But, is it an actual cancer in my blood?

[@oatv]

A cancer in your blood is called leukemia. Essential Thrombocytosis occurs when there is an issue in the genes that regulate the production of platelets, so that your body ends up overdoing this - you end up with way too many platelets in your blood, which in itself can be a problem and cause symptons (such as headaches, blurred vision, arterial thrombosis..). While it is true that the other myeloproliferative disorders have a higher probability of suffering a leukemic transformation, this does not happen as often with Essential Thrombocytosis (but this also depends on the number of platelets you have, on the number of somatic mutations, among other prognostic factors). I hope to have helped. You should keep up with regular check up 's on your GP! :)

[@rebeccabatdorf3332]

I watched your video about platelets but I'm curious because I have high platelets and 6% anemia. My CBC was off across the entire chart with all levels being low but platelets high. My cycle is severe too and in the past when in military years and years ago they did a bleed test but were at the time unable to identify a bleeding disorder. If I remember correctly I was like 10 seconds away from automatically being described as having a bleeding disorder even though blood test couldn't identify one. I just remember the pety officer being very upset and thinking I took nsaids or something and I didn't. anyways now all these years later I'm no longer in the military and having all these health issues. Digestive, IBSD, migraines, menoragera, vitamin d deficiency , thyroid disorder, and now the iron levels and platelet count. My question to you is do you know of any disorder that could cause high platelets and low anemia with the mild to severe symptoms I've been experiencing. I know you can't diagnos me. I'm just wanting to go into my appointments prepared because I'm becoming frustrated with my doctors. They just keep adding medicine's that only seem to patch the problem. eating healthy is difficult with the IBSD as well because literally everything seams to trigger. also I thought it ironic that one of the meds I was advised by a gi doctor to avoid was nsaids and that's listed in your video but my platelets are high? thanks much.

[@herberttsuro5714]

Rebecca Batdorf Hi! Anaemia can cause mildly high platelet count. This is caused by increased production of erythropoietin, which has cross reactivity with thrombopoetin...

[@eshamirza91]

you should donate platelets and save others.

[@jagrajsingh6494]

My 4 years daughter was diagnosed with ITP last year. She was having red colored spots and rashes over her whole body which did bleed after injury, there were bruises also. Her platelet count was 36000 at that time and she was on steroids but there was not much improvement in her symptoms and platelet count. One day I discussed this problem with one of my friend. He told me about Planet Ayurveda, I visited there, consulted Dr. Vikram Chauhan, Dr. Vikram prescribed her with "ITP care pack for children". Currently she is taking medicine and is better now.

Please would you be able to explain why theres a raised PTT in von w..

[@mikemikeryankyler]

Deficiency in Factor 8 as a result of decreased or absent VWF

[@nourakhaled7092]

vWF carry factor8 in blood so deficiency in vWF will effect conc of factor 8 which play important role in intrisic pathway (ptt)

[@mawaddasulieman5433]

Nice 👍👍

[@angelafulford789]

Is there any way to naturally increase the platelet amount?
