Canadian Medical-Surgical Nursing Examination - FAQ Sample Questions

Polycythemia vera is a proliferative disorder of myeloid stem cells that results in elevated levels of RBCs, WBCs, and platelets in the circulating blood. Which of the following is least likely to be used as a treatment for this disorder?

Correct Answer:
platelet transfusion
polycythemia vera (pv) is a type of blood cancer characterized by the overproduction of red blood cells (rbcs), although white blood cells (wbcs) and platelets may also be increased. this excessive production is due to an abnormality in the bone marrow's myeloid stem cells. the treatment options for pv aim to reduce the thickness of the blood and prevent complications such as thrombosis (blood clots). let's explore why platelet transfusion is considered the least likely treatment option among those listed.

corticosteroid therapy is commonly used in various hematological disorders to modulate the immune system and reduce inflammation. in the context of pv, corticosteroids can help in managing symptoms related to an enlarged spleen (splenomegaly) and severe itching (pruritus), which are often associated with the disease. corticosteroids may also play a role in controlling the elevated wbc count.

immunosuppressant therapy is another treatment option for pv, particularly in severe or resistant cases. these medications help in reducing the overactive immune response, which can indirectly help control the production of blood cells. immunosuppressants can be beneficial in managing symptoms and slowing the progression of the disease.

splenectomy, which is the surgical removal of the spleen, may be considered in pv patients who experience significant symptoms from an enlarged spleen or in those with refractory disease. the spleen is involved in filtering abnormal blood cells, and its removal can decrease the burden of an overactive marrow output, reducing symptoms and improving quality of life.

platelet transfusion, however, is generally not used in the treatment of pv. this is primarily because pv patients typically have an elevated platelet count. adding more platelets via transfusions can increase the risk of thrombosis, one of the most dangerous complications of pv. moreover, there is no benefit in transfusing platelets unless the patient is experiencing severe bleeding, which is uncommon in pv. platelet transfusion does not address the underlying problem of increased platelet production and may exacerbate symptoms or lead to further complications.

in summary, while treatments like corticosteroid therapy, immunosuppressant therapy, and splenectomy address the symptoms or underlying issues of pv, platelet transfusion does not. it is typically considered only when there is a specific indication, such as severe bleeding, which is rare in the context of pv. thus, among the options provided, platelet transfusion is the least likely to be used in the management of polycythemia vera.
