4-T Score for the Likelihood of Heparin Induced Thrombocytopenia
- Thrombocytopenia - Compare the highest platelet
count within the sequence of
declining counts to the lowest.
- Timing (of platelet fall or thrombosis)
- Thrombosis
- Other potential cause of Thrombocytopenia
0 to 3 points: Low probability (risk of HIT <1 percent)
4 to 5 points: Intermediate probability (risk of HIT ~14%)
6 to 8 points: High probability (risk of HIT ~68%)
