Alloimmune thrombocytopenia

Description

A disease caused by determinants such as a blood transfusion that lead to an immune response to the foreign antigens. This disease is characterised by low levels of platelets in the body due to an immune reactive response to the foreign platelet antigens. This disease may present with increased bruising or haemorrhaging. Confirmation is by identification of decreased platelet count and presence of autoantibodies in a blood sample.
