Pip Nicolson Highlights Key PITT Case Insight on Anti-PF4 Antibody Testing
Pip Nicolson, Associate Clinical Professor in Cardiovascular Medicine (Haematology) at University of Birmingham, shared on X:
“Thank you Prof. Makris for your clear and concise commentary on our PITT case in the British Journal of Hematology.
Take home message: test anyone with the combination of thrombosis and thrombocytopenia for anti-PF4 antibodies (by ELISA) and have a low threshold for starting non-heparin anticoagulation.”
