Question 1 of 5

The client states she does not understand what causes idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP). The nurse provides which of the following explanations?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) is an autoimmune condition where antibodies coat platelets, marking them for destruction by the spleen. This leads to a low platelet count. The liver is not primarily involved, ITP is not due to an underactive immune system, and while 'idiopathic' means the exact trigger is unknown, the autoimmune mechanism is well-established.
