Death00
  • *TMA event-free status is ≥12 weeks of stable platelet count, no PE/PI and no new dialysis.

  • †TMA intervention rate is the number of PE or PI interventions and number of new dialyses required per patient per day.

  • ‡Haematological normalisation is the normal platelet and lactate dehydrogenase levels, ≥2 consecutive measurements and ≥4 weeks apart.

  • §Complete TMA response is haematological normalisation plus at least a 25% reduction in serum creatinine for a minimum of 4 weeks.

  • CKD, chronic kidney disease; eGFR, estimated glomerular filtration rate; Hb, haemoglobin; PE, plasma exchange; PI, plasma infusion; TMA, thrombotic microangiopathy.
