Rationale for new note
UWorld QID:11624 says that only these two criteria are required for the diagnosis of TTP
Rejection reason
this would be better to put in the extra section of FATRN pneumonic card, not necessary for everyone to memorize what is required for diagnosis, as STEP exams are more about recognizing a disease
Text
In the FATRN pneumonic, only {{c1::anemia}} and {{c2::thrombocytopenia}} are needed to make a diagnosis of thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura
Text
In the FATRN pneumonic, <u>only</u> {{c1::anemia}} and {{c2::thrombocytopenia}} are needed to make a <u>diagnosis</u> of <b>thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura</b>
Extra
- TTP is caused by deficiency of the ADAMTS13 enzyme
- Loss of the ADAMTS13 enzyme triggers spontaneous platelet aggregation and activation, which results in thrombocytopenia due to platelet consumption and microangiopathic hemolytic anemia (MAHA) due to mechanical shearing of passing red blood cells
- Loss of the ADAMTS13 enzyme triggers spontaneous platelet aggregation and activation, which results in thrombocytopenia due to platelet consumption and microangiopathic hemolytic anemia (MAHA) due to mechanical shearing of passing red blood cells
