Diagnostic value of antibody-induced procoagulant platelets in heparin-induced thrombocytopenia : communication from the ISTH SSC Subcommittee on Platelet Immunology

Copyright © 2023 International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis. Published by Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved..

Heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) is an immune-mediated prothrombotic disorder characterized by a drop in platelet count and an increased risk of thromboembolic events. The accurate diagnosis of HIT involves clinical assessment and laboratory testing with well-characterized functional tests. Recent research has shown the potential of investigating procoagulant platelet formation induced by HIT antibodies. To successfully implement these assays in clinical laboratories, careful consideration of technical and preanalytical factors is crucial. In this communication from the SSC Platelet Immunology, we provide a consensus from experts on the use of flow cytometry in HIT diagnosis, highlighting the importance of standardized protocols.
