Defectos congénitos de la función plaquetaria - Treatment

Nombres alternativos

Trastorno por defecto de almacenamiento intraplaquetario; Trombastenia de Glanzmann; Síndrome de Bernard-Soulier; Anomalías congénitas de la función plaquetaria

Tratamiento:

No hay tratamiento específico para estos trastornos.

Las personas con trastornos hemorrágicos deben evitar tomar ácido acetilsalicílico (aspirin ) y antinflmatorios no esteroides (como ibuprofeno y naproxeno) porque se sabe que afectan la coagulación de la sangre. Los pacientes que tienen sangrado severo pueden necesitar transfusiones de plaquetas.

Pronóstico:

El tratamiento generalmente puede controlar el sangrado. Sin embargo, los defectos congénitos de la función plaquetaria son trastornos de por vida para los cuales no hay cura. Los pacientes deben tomar precauciones para evitar sangrados.

Posibles complicaciones:

Sangrado intenso
Anemia ferropénica en mujeres con menstruación

Cuándo contactar a un profesional médico:

Consulte con el médico si:

Presenta sangrado o hematomas y no conoce la causa
El sangrado no responde al método usual de control
