“…are in the range of 50-75 µg/kg, and close monitoring is recommended in Rh(D) positive patients to prevent secondary hemolytic anemia [16,17]. Finally, the promising results obtained with vitamin D supplementation in children with persistent and chronic ITP suggest that vitamin D may play an immunomodulatory role in ITP and, therefore, may be a therapeutic target [18].…”
Primary immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is a complex autoimmune disease whose hallmark is a deregulation of cellular and humoral immunity leading to increased destruction and reduced production of platelets. The heterogeneity of presentation and clinical course hampers personalized approaches for diagnosis and management. In 2021, the Spanish ITP Group (GEPTI) of the Spanish Society of Hematology and Hemotherapy (SEHH) updated a consensus document that had been launched in 2011. The updated guidelines have been the reference for the diagnosis and management of primary ITP in Spain ever since. Nevertheless, the emergence of new tools and strategies makes it advisable to review them again. For this reason, we have updated the main recommendations appropriately. Our aim is to provide a practical tool to facilitate the integral management of all aspects of primary ITP management.
