• renal function tests = normal
• liver function tests = normal
• platelet count = 50
• anticardiolipin antibodies/lupus anticoagulant and SLE serology = normal
• coagulation profile = normal
• infection screen = normal.
What would be the most appropriate management for her

A 26-year-old primpiparous woman with known idiopathic immune thrombocytopenia presents
in spontaneous labour at 38 weeks of gestation. She has not required any treatment for this

a repeat full blood count was as follows:
• Hb = 89 g/L
• WCC = 5.0
• platelets = 320
• MCV = 75 fl
• MCH = 30
She feels tired but is otherwise well.
