Platelet count in impedance-based hematology analyzer: Beware of trap!

open access: yesAsian Journal of Transfusion Science, 2023
Among the blood counts, platelet count is most often reported with inconsistency. Many of the analyzers work on electrical impedance principle for red blood cell (RBC) and platelet counting. However, with this technology, factors such as fragmented RBCs,

Impact of platelet count on results obtained from multiple electrode platelet aggregometry (Multiplate™)

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Medical Research, 2010
Objectives Use of potent antiplatelet drugs requires evaluation of platelet function. While platelet function in elective cases is usually assessed in a central laboratory environment, there is also an urgent need for rapid perioperative point-of-care ...

Thrombocytopeniak. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Thrombocytopenia means low platelet count. This is the most frequent cause of bleeding abnormalities. Petechias, purpuras, mucosal bleeding are typical clinical findings.
