Neonatal Alloimmune Thrombocytopenia (NAIT) is a condition that causes mild to serious haemorrhage in neonates and unborn babies due to low platelet count. This occurs where the mother had built up antibodies to the child’s platelets which cross the placenta and attack the child’s platelets. The information for the NAIT Registry will provide an important resource for women and children with NAIT, clinicians who treat NAIT, and our community. By collecting this data we will be able to better define the incidence, natural history and clinical outcomes of NAIT. There will be more information on the range of therapeutic strategies being employed in the treatment of NAIT and better defined optimal management of NAIT patients.
