Abstract
Objective To investigate the detection value of platelet parameters including platelet counts(PLT),mean platelet volume(MPV)and platelet distrbution width(PDW)in pregnancy thrombocytopenia.Methods 276 cases of pregnant women complicated with thrombocytop-enia in our hospital were studied retrospectively.Results Compared with those of the control pregnant women group,in idiopathic thrombocytopenic(ITP),the amount of PLT decreased significantly(P0.01),while MPV and PDW increased(P0.05);In pregnancy associated thrombocytopenia(PAT),the amount of PLT decreased significantly(P0.01),while MPV and PDW didn't change significantly(P0.05);In patients with pregnancy induced hypertension(PIH)was found no difference in PLT(P0.05),while MPV and PDW increased(P0.05);In the pregnant patients with livers injury,the amount of PLT and MPV decreased(P0.05),while PDW didn't change significantly(P0.05).Conclusion PLT MPV and PDW are very useful param-eters for differential diagnosis of pregnancy thrombocytopenia.
