    Platelet counts should be done at the time of expected nadir (lowest number of platelets) and at least until remission starts (platelet counts greater than 50,000). The patients should be watched for signs of allergy, fluid retention and anemia during and after therapy with Neumega.

  3. Antiplatelet drug - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antiplatelet_drug

    An increase in antiplatelet effect would increase the risk of bleeding and could cause prolonged or excessive bleeding. A decrease in antiplatelet effect would reduce the risk of bleeding, but increase the thromboembolic risk. [3] Drug toxicity may increase when multiple antiplatelet drugs are used.

  4. Platelet transfusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Platelet_transfusion

    Higher platelet transfusion thresholds have been used in premature neonates, but this has been based on limited evidence. [19] There is now evidence that using a high platelet count threshold (50 x 10 9 /L) increases the risk of death or bleeding compared to a lower platelet count threshold (25 x 10 9 /L) in premature neonates. [20]

  5. Plateletpheresis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plateletpheresis

    Platelet count increase as well as platelet survival after transfusion is related to the dose of platelets infused and to the patient's body surface area (BSA). Usually these values are less than what would be expected. Corrected platelet count increment (CCI) = platelet increment at one hr x BSA (m 2) / # platelets infused x 10 11

  6. Thrombosis prevention - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thrombosis_prevention

    On average 28,726 hospitalized adults aged 18 and older with a VTE blood clot diagnosis die each year. [11] Risk of thrombosis is related to hospitalization. [ 4 ] In 2005 the UK the Parliamentary Health Select Committee determined the annual rate of death due to thrombosis was 25,000 with at least 50% being hospital-acquired.

  7. Low-molecular-weight heparin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low-molecular-weight_heparin

    The use of LMWHs should be avoided in patients with known allergies to LMWHs, heparin, sulfites or benzyl alcohol, in patients with active major bleeding, or in patients with a history of heparin-induced low blood platelet count (also known as heparin-induced thrombocytopenia or HIT). High treatment doses are contraindicated in acute bleeding ...
