Welcome to our channel Demystifying Science. In this video you will learn about a medical condition called Thrombocytopenia or low blood platelets. • Thrombocytopenia refers to a deficiency of platelets in the blood. • Several significant causes contribute to thrombocytopenia, including insufficient platelet production, rapid platelet destruction, or entrapment of platelets in the spleen. Certain bacteria, like Pseudomonas aeruginosa, produce toxins that inhibit platelet production in the bone marrow, leading to a decrease in platelet count and causing thrombocytopenia. Similarly, conditions like leukemia and lymphomas induce cancer in the bone marrow, inhibiting platelet production and resulting in thrombocytopenia. • Moreover, some autoimmune diseases trigger the destruction of platelets. In such diseases, the dengue virus can cause an autoimmune reaction against platelets. When the dengue virus infects platelets in the blood, the immune system perceives them as foreign invaders and begins to attack, leading to a reduction in platelet count and the development of thrombocytopenia. • Enlargement of the spleen can also cause thrombocytopenia. An enlarged spleen easily traps platelets, reducing their count in the blood and contributing to the onset of thrombocytopenia. • Symptoms of thrombocytopenia: • Patients with thrombocytopenia may exhibit visible bruises and red rashes on the skin. Additionally, occasional bleeding from the gums and nose may occur. • Treatment of thrombocytopenia: • The treatment for thrombocytopenia often involves blood transfusions or plasma exchange. In cases where thrombocytopenia results from medications like heparin, alternative blood-thinning medications are prescribed. • Thanks for watching. • #platelets #PlateletsDeficiency
