Abstrakt: An observational approach is recommended in newly diagnosed children with immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) at low risk of bleeding; however, there is no standard definition of risk. A standardized clinical assessment and management plan (SCAMP ® ), a modifiable practice guideline, was implemented and revised (SCAMP-1 and SCAMP-2) and applied to 71 newly diagnosed patients with ITP. The Buchanan and Adix bleeding score guided treatment and was modified by stratifying by low- and high-risk grade 3 bleeding in SCAMP-2. Observation rates increased from 40% to 74% from SCAMP-1 to SCAMP-2 (P < 0.05) with no bleeding complications. We propose a modified bleeding score that increased observation rates in low-risk patients with ITP.
