A decrease in platelets can cause easy bruising, bleeding gums, and internal bleeding. This disease is caused by an immune reaction against one's own platelets. It has also been called autoimmune thrombocytopenic purpura. Thrombocytopenia means a decreased number of platelets in the blood.
Idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura is a blood disorder characterized by an abnormal decrease in the number of platelets in the blood. Platelets are cells in the blood that help stop bleeding. A decrease in platelets can result in easy bruising, bleeding gums and internal bleeding.

Thrombocytopenia, unspecified D69. 6 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM D69. 6 became effective on October 1, 2021.
A healthy person usually has a platelet count of 150,000 to 400,000. You have thrombocytopenia if your number falls under 150,000. If you're wondering what the long name means, here's how it breaks down: "Thrombocytes" are your platelets, and "penia" means you don't have enough of something.
Purpose of review: The term idiopathic is often used to describe a disease with no identifiable cause. It may be a diagnosis of exclusion; however, what specific minimum investigations need to be performed to define idiopathic is not always clear.
The ITP Syndrome ITP is an autoimmune bleeding disorder caused by various etiologies, which is characterized by increased platelet destruction and impaired production, resulting in a decreased platelet count. Primary ITP is idiopathic, whereas secondary ITP is linked to an underlying condition (1).
Degrees of thrombocytopenia can be further subdivided into mild (platelet count 100,000 to 150,000/microL), moderate (50,000 to 99,000/microL), and severe (<50,000/microL) [1].
SymptomsEasy or excessive bruising (purpura)Superficial bleeding into the skin that appears as a rash of pinpoint-sized reddish-purple spots (petechiae), usually on the lower legs.Prolonged bleeding from cuts.Bleeding from your gums or nose.Blood in urine or stools.Unusually heavy menstrual flows.Fatigue.More items...•

Gestational thrombocytopenia (GT) is a benign condition with moderate thrombocytopenia (platelet count of 130-150.000/ìL) in most of the cases (4). Platelet values below 50.000/ìL in a pregnant woman exclude GT and require the search of another etiology. Gestational thrombocytopenia is a diagnosis of exclusion.
