Postoperative platelet elevation may be due to transient platelet elevation caused by surgical infection, or platelet elevation caused after splenectomy, which can be treated with general therapy, aspirin and other medications.
1. Platelet elevation caused by postoperative infection: bacterial infection, viral infection, etc. may lead to transient platelet elevation, and the platelet will generally decrease after the infection is controlled.
In case of bacterial infection, anti-infection treatment such as cefoperazone can be used. Viral infections are generally self-limiting. Special types of viruses, such as infantile cytomegalovirus infection, can be treated with antiviral drugs such as ganciclovir.
2. Platelet elevation after splenectomy: Generally, if the platelets are lower than 400×10^9/l, you can observe first and recheck the platelets once every two to three days.
When platelets are greater than 400×10^9/L, anti-platelet aggregation drugs such as aspirin and Pansentin can be used; if platelets rise further, anticoagulation with dextrose or low molecular heparin can be considered.
There are other reasons for postoperative platelet elevation, it is recommended to consult a doctor in time to identify the cause and treat the cause. The above medication should be taken in accordance with the doctor’s prescription.
