Answer:

Increased thrombopoetin levels

Explanation:

Immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) is an immune disorder that occurs when the immune system mistakenly attacks platelets following a viral infection.

Due to this, the patient will be easily bruised and bleed since the platelets are unusually low.

Thrombopoetin is the growth factor for platelets. It stimulates the production of platelets.

Therefore, increased levels of Thrombopoetin is unexpected for patients with ITP.

Remaining safe from self-inflicted injury

The priority is safety; the child must be protected from self-harm. Repetitive behaviors are comforting, and unless they are harmful their limitation is not a priority. Although feeding independently is a basic need that may be achieved, it is not the priority. Children who need help with toileting are not necessarily incontinent, and it is not the priority.
