Saba Javed: Managing VTE in Cancer Patients With Thrombocytopenia
Saba Javed, Assistant Manager, Cystic Fibrosis Clinical Pharmacist and Pediatric Infectious Disease Clinical Pharmacist at The Indus Hospital, shared a post on LinkedIn:
“I am currently reviewing many PICU oncology patients who are being treated with TLS, some of whom are undiagnosed or battling cancer.
It is well-known that oncology patients often have neutropenia and low platelet counts. I am interested in understanding how to manage cases where they develop VTE.
I came across a very informative article that specifies platelet count thresholds for administering or withholding treatment, specifically concerning LMWH (Enoxaparin).
Sharing a quick chart to review.”
