[00:00:00]How do we exactly treat it?

[00:00:02]Now, it's a little bit beyond supportive therapy. In this case, you're concerned for C. diff with the diarrhea he had.

[00:00:09]Granted, you'd want to treat the underlying cause. So, antibiotics and and all of that, but that's not the scope of this talk. We're talking about platelets. So, yes, there is a component of supportive therapy and there is a component of treating the underlying condition, but you want to make sure everything else is being treated appropriately. In his case, he had a UTI. So, you want to make sure you're giving him the necessary antibiotics to cover that as well.

[00:00:30]You also want to make sure you're avoiding nephrotoxic agents and making sure that that kidney injury isn't getting worse.
