Ahmed Kotb: Emergency Management of Critical Bleeding in ITP
Ahmed Kotb, Head of Global Oncology Medical Affairs at Daiichi Sankyo, shared a post on X:
“For ITP plus critical or life-threatening bleeding plus platelets less than 20×10⁹/L:
- High-dose IVIG.
- High-dose corticosteroids.
- Platelet transfusion.
- Tranexamic acid.
- Consider early TPO-RA.
If bleeding remains uncontrolled – consider urgent splenectomy.
Avoid routine rFVIIa because of thrombosis risk.”
