| Abstract | Introduction: Chemotherapy-induced thrombocytopenia (CIT) is an arduous complication of chemotherapy to be dealt with, and there are many unmet needs in this field to be addressed on the global front. We have conducted this study to contribute to the understanding of existing knowledge gaps of CIT management and highlight the direction to focus future investigations. Methods: This was an academic single-institution report on a cross-sectional study evaluating CIT management practices using platelet (PLT) transfusions by haematologists and oncologists in Armenia. Results: Physicians' opinions differed significantly when it came to defining thrombocytopenia by PLT levels. 13.2% of those surveyed considered thrombocytopenia to be when PLT counts fall below 180 × 10 Conclusion: CIT is a complication of interest to physicians worldwide and has not been resolved yet. This is the first conducted survey regarding CIT and the initial step for further research. |
