Re: thrombocytopeniaFrom: Dr. Lynn Montgomery (lmontgomery@communitymed.org)Mon Nov 27 07:59:31 2000
At 110K, this represents thrombocytopenia of pregnancy and usually doesn't complicate things. You might want to check an ANA (antinuclear antibody), but beyond that, I would not do any extensive work-up. I would check the platelet count at regular intervals throughout the pregnancy and at the time of labor admission. As long as the platelet count remains above 100K, the diagnosis remains thrombocytopenia of pregnancy and no worries. If the platelet count dips below 100K, then more work-up is indicated. Additionally, it is really of no value to go searching for an antiplatelet antibody at any point...

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
