May streamline evaluation of suspected inherited platelet function defects; extends ISTH guidance pending prospective validation.
This review provides a structured, four-step diagnostic algorithm for inherited platelet function defects, offering an expert approach that complements and slightly modifies existing ISTH guidance.
Hoepner et al. (2025) conducted a review in Inherited Platelet Function Defects. Diagnostic approach and laboratory methods was evaluated. A proposed four-step diagnostic approach for inherited platelet function defects progresses from clinical history and bleeding scores to basic, specialized, and genetic laboratory testing.
