COVID-19 & ITP Survey Statistics


The ITP Natural History Study Registry is an international patient-consented registry of adults and children with ITP. The registry aims to collect, store and retrieve data on the natural progression of ITP, enabling collection of data on diagnosis and treatment, management of care, quality of life, clinician reporting, and characterization of the ITP population as a whole. The registry is administered by PDSA and overseen by the National Organization for Rare Disorders (NORD) and a committee of leading hematologists, ITP patients, and caregivers. Registry questionnaires were built from common data element standards:

  1. Participant Profile

    Country, race, insurance, education, employment
  2. Medical and Diagnostic Data

    Diagnostic tests, clinical visits, family history, and pregnancy/childbirth
  3. Treatment and Review of Systems

    Treatments used (past and current), diet, surgeries, and review of systems
  4. Quality of Life

    Participant level of anxiety, depression, sleep, pain, fatigue, and physical health
  5. COVID-19 & ITP (Viral infection, Vaccinations, and Boosters)

    Experience with SARS-CoV-2 (coronavirus), COVID-19 vaccinations, and boosters
