Heparin-Induced Thrombocytopenia (HIT) | Types, Signs & Symptoms, Diagnosis, Treatment

The video tutorial covers heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT), explaining its definition, types, clinical features, diagnosis, and treatment. HIT is a condition where low platelet levels occur after heparin administration, with two types: Type 1, a transient condition, and Type 2, which poses significant thrombotic risks. The diagnosis involves the 4T's criteria, and treatment focuses on stopping heparin and using non-heparin anticoagulants.
