PLASMIC score: Not intended to replace but rather to prompt the ADAMTS13 testing.

We read with interest the paper by Moosavi et al,1 who reported findings from a validation study of the PLASMIC score. 1 PREDICTIVE POWER OF THE PLASMIC SCORE IN RELAPSES Among the patients included in the Moosavi et al's study, some were recruited because of relapse of TTP. In conclusion, we agree that measurement of ADAMTS13 activity certainly identifies patients with TTP and that assays with a short turnaround time assist decision makers even more.
