Multicenter StudyRisk factors for bleeding, including platelet count threshold, in newly diagnosed immune thrombocytopenia adults.
Essentials Risk factors of bleeding in adult immune thrombocytopenia are not known. This multicenter study assessed risk factors of bleeding at immune thrombocytopenia onset. Platelet count thresholds associated with bleeding were < 20 × 109 L-1 and < 10 × 109 L-1. Exposure to anticoagulants was a major risk factor of severe bleeding.
