2. Thrombocytopenia - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thrombocytopenia

   Low levels of platelets in turn may lead to prolonged or excessive bleeding. It is the most common coagulation disorder among intensive care patients and is seen in a fifth of medical patients and a third of surgical patients. [3] A normal human platelet count ranges from 150,000 to 450,000 platelets/microliter (μL) of blood. [4]

3. Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thrombotic...

   Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) initially presents with a range of symptoms that may include severe thrombocytopenia (platelet count usually < 30,000/mm³), microangiopathic hemolytic anemia (evidenced by schistocytes in the blood smear), and various clinical signs such as petechiae, purpura, neurologic symptoms, myocardial ischemia ...

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_hematologic_conditions

   Anemia of prematurity is a form of anemia affecting preterm infants [25] with decreased hematocrit. [26] Aplastic anemia: D60-D61: 866: Aplastic anemia is a condition where bone marrow does not produce sufficient new cells to replenish blood cells. [27] Autoimmune hemolytic anemia: D59.0-D59.1

5. Complete blood count - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complete_blood_count

   Thrombocytopenia is a feature of many blood disorders, like acute leukemia and aplastic anemia, as well as some autoimmune diseases. [160] [161] If the platelet count is extremely low, a platelet transfusion may be performed. [162]

6. Mean platelet volume - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mean_platelet_volume

   Mean platelet volume (MPV) is a machine-calculated measurement of the average size of platelets found in blood and is typically included in blood tests as part of the CBC. Since the average platelet size is larger when the body is producing increased numbers of platelets, the MPV test results can be used to make inferences about platelet ...

7. Copper deficiency - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copper_deficiency

   The characteristic hematological (blood) effects of copper deficiency are anemia (which may be microcytic, normocytic or macrocytic) and neutropenia. [6] Thrombocytopenia (low blood platelets) is unusual. [2] [7] The peripheral blood and bone marrow aspirate findings in copper deficiency can mimic myelodysplastic syndrome. [8]
