Abstract:
Idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura(ITP) is one of the most common hemorrhagic diseases in children. Through the combination of clinical practice, the syndrome differentiation treatment for ITP was studied based on the theory of "heat,blood stasis and deficiency".It is believed that heat is the primary factor in inducing and aggravate ITP, and stasis has always been there during the whole course of ITP, while deficiency is the root cause. Therefore, in the clinical treatment of ITP, we should pay equal attention to the deficiency and the actual disease, taking the treatment for the real disease as the final target; meanwhile, the traditional Chinese medicine should be used properly in order to perform better syndrome differentiation treatment, which is effective according to our years of clinical practice.

Key words: Thrombocytopenic purpura, Idiopathic, Syndrome differentiation, Children
