Platelet morphology and IPF during treatment with haemodialysis
نویسنده
چکیده
During treatment with HD PLT interaction with the dialysis membrane results in activation and adhesion on the membrane surface and release of platelet-derived factors. In case of PLT activation increased amounts of degranulated PLTs are present in peripheral blood circulation. Degranulated PLTs are less viable and demonstrate a shortened life span. Increased turnover of PLTs might reveal increased amounts of immature PLTs with increased RNA content.

Steady Increment of Immature Platelet Fraction Is Suppressed by Irradiation in Single-Donor Platelet Components during Storage
Circulating immature platelet fraction (IPF) reflects real-time thrombopoiesis and correlates with platelet recovery from thrombocytopenic presentations. To understand the dynamics of IPF in platelet transfusions, we quantified the %-IPF in single-donor platelet components (SDP) during prolonged storage. %-IPF significantly increased from baseline by day 5 post-donation. Absolute IPF counts (A-...
متن کاملPlatelet production and platelet destruction: assessing mechanisms of treatment effect in immune thrombocytopenia.
This study investigated the immature platelet fraction (IPF) in assessing treatment effects in immune thrombocytopenia (ITP). IPF was measured on the Sysmex XE2100 autoanalyzer. The mean absolute-IPF (A-IPF) was lower for ITP patients than for healthy controls (3.2 vs 7.8 × 10⁹/L, P < .01), whereas IPF percentage was greater (29.2% vs 3.2%, P < .01). All 5 patients with a platelet response to E...
متن کاملAssessment of an immature platelet fraction (IPF) in peripheral thrombocytopenia.
A new automated method to reliably quantify reticulated platelets, expressed as the immature platelet fraction (IPF), has been developed utilizing the XE-2100 blood cell counter with upgraded software (Sysmex, Kobe, Japan). The IPF is identified by flow cytometry techniques and the use of a nucleic acid specific dye in the reticulocyte/optical platelet channel. The clinical utility of this para...
متن کاملAttenuation of platelet reactivity by enoxaparin compared with unfractionated heparin in patients undergoing haemodialysis.
BACKGROUND Increased platelet reactivity presages adverse cardiac events. Because both haemodialysis and unfractionated heparin (UFH) can increase platelet reactivity, we compared platelet reactivity during haemodialysis when patients were anticoagulated with UFH or enoxaparin. METHODS Patients (n = 20) underwent consecutive haemodialysis sessions with either UFH or enoxaparin in a random ord...
متن کاملSonoclot coagulation analysis: new bedside monitoring for determination of the appropriate heparin dose during haemodialysis.
BACKGROUND Thrombotic and haemorrhagic complications affect cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in haemodialysis patients. We investigated whether a new bedside Sonoclot analysis is useful for determining an appropriate heparin dose during haemodialysis. METHODS Twenty-two haemodialysis patients (15 males and seven females) treated with unfractionated heparin were recruited. Sonoclot param...
