2. Reference ranges for blood tests - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reference_ranges_for_blood...

   Reference ranges (reference intervals) for blood tests are sets of values used by a health professional to interpret a set of medical test results from blood samples. Reference ranges for blood tests are studied within the field of clinical chemistry (also known as "clinical biochemistry", "chemical pathology" or "pure blood chemistry"), the ...

3. Platelet - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Platelet

   Platelet concentration in the blood (i.e. platelet count), can be measured manually using a hemocytometer, or by placing blood in an automated platelet analyzer using particle counting, such as a Coulter counter or optical methods. [47] Most common blood testing methods include platelet count in their measurements, usually reported as PLT. [48]

4. Blood cell - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_cell

   They circulate in the blood of mammals and are involved in hemostasis, leading to the formation of blood clots. Platelets release thread-like fibers to form these clots. The normal range (99% of population analyzed) for platelets is 150,000 to 450,000 per cubic millimeter. [6] If the number of platelets is too low, excessive bleeding can occur.

5. Diabetic foot - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diabetic_foot

   In diabetes, peripheral nerve dysfunction can be combined with peripheral artery disease (PAD) causing poor blood circulation to the extremities (diabetic angiopathy). [4] Around half of the patients with a diabetic foot ulcer have co-existing PAD. [5] [6] Vitamin D deficiency has been recently found to be associated with diabetic foot ...

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. Complete blood count - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complete_blood_count

   A complete blood count (CBC), also known as a full blood count (FBC), is a set of medical laboratory tests that provide information about the cells in a person's blood.The CBC indicates the counts of white blood cells, red blood cells and platelets, the concentration of hemoglobin, and the hematocrit (the volume percentage of red blood cells).
