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

Asian 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,

PLATELET COUNTS AND PLATELET FUNCTION [PDF]

Blood, 1946
Abstract Determinations of the platelet count, clot retraction, bleeding time, capillary fragility, and coagulation time were made in 64 normal subjects and in 404 patients suffering from various diseases. The normal values for the platelet count done by an experienced technician using the Rees and Ecker method were: mean,

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

European 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 ...

A The ratio of neutrophils l and the mean platelet volume to platelet count ratio as risk factors for febrile convulsions in Zakho

Zanco Journal of Medical Sciences
Background and objective: The most prevalent cause of convulsions in young children is febrile convulsions. The ratio of neutrophils to lymphocytes (NLR), the mean platelet volume (MPV), and the platelet count are indicators of inflammation.

A Population‐Based Study on Childhood Aplastic Anemia—Incidence, Outcomes, and Health‐Related Quality of Life

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Childhood aplastic anemia (AA) is a rare disease, and both the disease itself and its treatment cause significant morbidity. We aimed to determine the contemporary incidence of childhood AA in Finland, to compare the clinical characteristics of AA against inherited bone marrow failure syndromes (IBMFS) and refractory cytopenia of ...
