Abstract
Abstract: PB2086
Type: Publication Only
Background
Neonates born to mothers with idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) have an increased risk for neonatal thrombocytopenia and hemorrhagic complications.
Aims
The aim of this study was to determine the maternal and neonatal outcomes of pregnancies with ITP and also to identify risk factors that predicts neonatal thrombocytopenia
Methods
We performed a retrospective analysis of 40 pregnancies with ITP and their 40 neonates.
Results
Among the 40 neonates, thrombocytopenia (platelet count of less than 150×109/L) was detected in 15 neonates (37,5%) whom 8 of them had severe thrombocytopenia (platelet count of less than 50×109/L). Ten of the 15 neonates with thrombocytopenia required treatment to increase the platelet counts. There was statistically significant association between neonatal thrombocytopenia and maternal splenectomy history and maternal duration of thrombocytopenia. There was no statistically significant correlation between maternal platelet count and neonatal platelet count.
Conclusion
Clinicians should pay special attention in these neonates because of risk for development of neonatal thrombocytopenia. Maternal and neonatal outcomes in patients with idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura is generally good.
