What is Heprin induced Thrombocytopenia type 2 ? |
What are the after effects. here are some links... Thrombocytopenia is any disorder in which there are not enough platelets. Platelets are cells in the blood that help blood to clot. This condition is sometimes associated with abnormal bleeding. Heparin what you called heprin is a blood thinner. whick reduces clotting factor and can cause thrombocytopenia if overdosed. Specifically (HIP) heparin induced thrombocytopenia comes in two forms. Type I HIT, also known as heparin-associated thrombocytopenia (HAT), is a non-immunologic response to heparin therapy, while type II HIT is an immunologic response to heparin therapy. Type I is more common than type II, occurring in 10 to 20% of patients given heparin, while type II occurs in 1 to 3% of patients receiving heparin. type 2 HIP may lead to deep venous thrombosis (DVT), pulmonary embolism (PE), acute myocardial infarction, skin necrosis, venous limb gangrene, and possibly death.
