The detection of vaccine-induced thrombosis and thrombocytopenia (VITT) is an immediate problem in many parts of the world. VITT shows striking similarities to autoimmune heparin-induced thrombocytopenia, and these conditions need to be distinguished. Handtke et al describe a functional whole-blood flow cytometry test for detection of platelet-activating anti-PF4 antibodies that may be specific for VITT. Anti-PF4 antibodies as detected by some PF4/heparin enzyme immunoassays are not specific for VITT. We provide a functional whole-blood flow cytometry test for detection of platelet-activating anti-PF4 antibodies in VITT. Vaccination is crucial in combatting the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 pandemic. The rare complication of thrombocytopenia and thrombotic complications at unusual sites after ChAdOx1 nCov-19 vaccination is caused by platelet-activating antibodies directed against platelet factor 4 (PF4). We present a widely applicable whole-blood standard flow cytometric assay to identify the pathogenic antibodies associated with vaccine-induced immune-mediated thrombotic thrombocytopenia (VITT) after ChAdOx1 nCov-19 vaccination. This assay will enable rapid diagnosis by many laboratories. This trial was registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as #NCT04370119.
