Laboratory Investigation of Myeloproliferative Neoplasms (MPNs): Recommendations of the Canadian Mpn Group.
Une publication du Dr. Lambert Busque a récemment été publiée dans le American Journal of Clinical Pathology. Voici le résumé de cet article.
OBJECTIVES:
To standardize diagnostic investigations for myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) to increase homogeneity in patient care and to streamline diagnostic approaches in the most efficient and cost-effective manner.
METHODS:
The development of Canadian expert consensus recommendations for the diagnosis of MPNs began with a review of the following: clinical evidence, daily practice, existing treatment guidelines, and availability of diagnostic tools. Each group member was assigned a specific topic, which they discussed with the entire group during several consensus meetings.
RESULTS:
This document provides the Canadian MPN group’s recommendations, proposed diagnostic algorithms, and background evidence upon which decisions were made.
CONCLUSIONS:
Standardization of diagnostic investigations will increase homogeneity in patient care and provide a foundation for future clinical research in this rapidly evolving therapeutic area. Streamlining diagnostic approaches in the most efficient and cost-effective manner will also result in significant cost saving for the health care system.
