Abstract
Glanzmann thrombasthenia (GT) is a genetic bleeding disorder characterised by severely reduced/absent platelet aggregation in response to multiple physiological agonists. The severity of bleeding in GT varies markedly, as does the emergency situations and complications encountered in patients. A number of emergency situations may occur in the context of GT, including spontaneous or provoked bleeding, such as surgery or childbirth. While general management principles apply in each of these settings, specific considerations are essential for the management of GT to avoid escalating minor bleeding events. These recommendations have been developed from a literature review and consensus from experts of the French Network for Inherited Platelet Disorders, the French Society of Emergency Medicine, representatives of patients' associations, and Orphanet to aid decision making and optimise clinical care by non-GT expert health professionals who encounter emergency situations in patients with GT.

Platelet transfusion for patients with platelet dysfunction: effectiveness, mechanisms, and unanswered questions. Curr Opin Hematol 2021; 27:378-385.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW In this review, we discuss current clinical guidelines and potential underlying mechanisms regarding platelet transfusion therapy in patients at risk of bleeding, comparing management of patients with thrombocytopenia versus those with qualitative platelet disorders. RECENT FINDINGS Platelet transfusion therapy is highly effective in managing bleeding in patients with hypoproliferative thrombocytopenia. Clinical trials have demonstrated that platelet transfusion can be used at a lower trigger threshold and reduced platelet doses, and may be used therapeutically rather than prophylactically in some situations, although additional data are needed. In patients with inherited platelet disorders such as Glanzmann's Thrombasthenia or those with RASGRP2 mutations, platelet transfusion may be ineffective because of competition between transfused and endogenous platelets at the site of vascular injury. Successful management of these patients may require transfusion of additional platelet units, or mechanism-driven combination therapy with other pro-hemostatic agents. In patients on antiplatelet therapy, timing of transfusion and inhibitor mechanism-of-action are key in determining therapeutic success. SUMMARY Expanding our understanding of the mechanisms by which transfused platelets exert their pro-hemostatic function in various bleeding disorders will improve the appropriate use of platelet transfusion.

Abstract
SummaryGlanzmann’s thrombasthenia (GT) is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by a lack of thrombocyte aggregation due to the absence of thrombocyte glycoproteins IIb and αIIbβ3. The role of haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) in GT remains controversial. However, HSCT offers the only curative approach for patients with a severe clinical phenotype.In this review, we will discuss the limitation of current status evidence and the specific risk of GT, in particular the alloimmunization and refractoriness to thrombocyte infusions. 19 successful HSCT in 18 GT type I patients have been reported. Mean age at transplantation was 5 years. All patients are still alive. The majority received sibling bone marrow transplant with busulfan and cyclophosphamid conditioning. GvHD incidence was within the normal range, but 10 patients showed alloimmunization of thrombocytes. Median follow up is 25 months.

Abstract
Glanzmann's thrombasthenia (GT) is characterized by increased bleeding risk. The treatment options in GT are limited. The aim of this study was to test the effect of GT blood supplementation with fibrinogen and factor XIII on thrombin generation, blood clotting, and fibrinolysis. Whole blood samples of GT patients and normal donors treated with eptifibatide (GT model) were subjected to clotting by CaCl(2) and tissue factor. Thrombin generation was measured in platelet-rich plasma. Clot formation and tPA-induced fibrinolysis were evaluated in whole blood by rotation thromboelastometry (ROTEM). Blood was supplemented with fibrinogen (3 g/L) and/or FXIII (2 IU/mL). Thrombin generation analysis of blood derived from GT model and GT patients revealed decreased endogenous thrombin potential and peak height and extended lag time compared to control. However, this method was not sensitive to blood spiking with fibrinogen and FXIII. ROTEM revealed lower maximum clot firmness (MCF) and area under curve (AUC) in the blood of GT model and GT patients. In the absence of exogenous tPA, blood spiking with fibrinogen markedly enhanced clot quality while FXIII had no effect. Combination of fibrinogen and FXIII did not add to the effect of fibrinogen. In contrast, by the addition of tPA, both fibrinogen and FXIII separately and, to more extent, in combination enhanced clot quality as well as resistance against tPA-induced fibrinolysis (increasing MCF, AUC, and lysis onset time). In conclusion, fibrinogen and FXIII exerted stimulation of blood clotting and inhibition of fibrinolysis. Treating normal blood with eptifibatide mimics the changes of coagulopathy in GT blood.
