Scenario: A 14-year-old female is brought to
the urgent care by her mother, who states that the girl has had an
abnormal number of bruises and “funny looking red splotches” on her
legs. These bruises were first noticed about 2 weeks ago and are not
related to trauma. PMH not remarkable and she takes no medications. The
mother does state the girl is recovering from a “bad case of mono” and
was on bedrest at home for the past 3 weeks. The girl noticed that her
gums were slightly bleeding when she brushed her teeth that morning.Labs
at urgent care demonstrated normal hgb and hct with normal WBC
differential. Platelet count of 100,000/mm3 was the only abnormal
finding. The staff also noticed that the venipuncture site oozed for a
few minutes after pressure was released. The doctor at urgent care
referred the patient and her mother to the ED for a complete work-up of
the low platelet count, including a peripheral blood smear for suspected
immune thrombocytopenia purpura.
