Platelet count |
150000-400000/microL |
|
|
MPV Mean platelet volume |
Reflects the average size of platelets. A high number of large platelets (high MPV) in a person with a low platelet count suggests the bone marrow is producing platelets and releasing them into circulation rapidly. Conversely, the MPV may be low in people with low platelet counts due to a disorder affecting production by the bone marrow. higher when there is destruction of platelets low level correlates with thrombocytopenia (aplastic anemia) |
|
|
Causes of high MPV |
Immune thrombocytopenic purpura Inflammatory bowel disease Myeloproliferative disorders Pre-eclampsia |
|
|
What are giant platelets? |
Abnormally large platelets, as large as a normal red blood cell. Seen in immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) and Bernard-Soulier disease |

|
|
|
PWD Platelet distribution width |
Reflects how uniform the platelets are in size. Larger platelets are usually relatively young and more recently released from the bone marrow, while smaller platelets may be older and have been in circulation for a few days. A normal PDW indicates platelets that are mostly the same size, while a high PDW means that platelet size varies greatly. |
|
|
IPF Immature platelet fraction, reticulated platelets |
The IPF may be used to help determine the likely cause of a person's thrombocytopenia, that is, decrease in production by the marrow (IPF is low) versus increased loss of platelets in the blood (IPF is higher).
Lab test results including platelet count and IPF can also help determine if a person needs a platelet transfusion and help monitor bone marrow recovery, such as after a bone marrow transplant. |
