Mean of the ITP Bleeding Score (IBLS) Secondary · Assessed over the 24-week study period

The ITP Bleeding Scale (IBLS) is an immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP)-specific bleeding score used to analyze the correlation of clinical and laboratory platelet variables with bleeding. The IBLS comprises of 11 grades from 0 (none) to 2 (marked bleeding) by history over the previous week or by exam; 2 being worse. These 11 grades include: skin by physical exam, oral by physical exam, skin by history, oral by history, epistaxis, gastrointestinal, urinary, gynecological, pulmonary, intracranial hemorrhage, and subconjunctival hemorrhage. After each grade is scored, the mean value for all 11

Mean of World Health Organization (WHO) Bleeding Scale Secondary · Assessed over the 24-week study period

The World Health Organization (WHO) bleeding scale is a standardized grading scale created to measure the severity of bleeding. The scale is a clinical investigator-assessed five-point scale with a score range starting at the lowest 0=No bleeding, 1 = Petechiae, 2=Mild blood loss, 3=Gross blood loss, to the worse 4=Debilitating blood loss. The WHO bleeding scale is scored by history over the previous-week or by exam. After each grade is scored, the mean value is calculated (lowest score being 0 \[no bleeding\] to the highest score being 4 \[debilitating blood loss\]) for each visit. LOCF metho
