Low platelet counts are one facet of ITP, but when we look at it from another angle, we see the multiple dimensions of ITP.

Recognizing immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) as a complex disorder of immune dysregulation involves more than managing low platelet counts. Beyond bleeding, patients often endure fatigue and cognitive impairments that impact quality of life. A multidimensional care approach is essential to address these broader burdens and effectively improve long-term patient well-being.1-6

Patients reported significant quality of life (QoL) challenges related to their ITP1

For ITP patients, several scales are available to measure and track fatigue and its impact on quality of life. These tools can help patients and healthcare providers gauge symptoms and adjust their ITP treatment accordingly.1-4
