Quantifying immature platelets as markers of increased platelet production after coronary artery bypass grafting surgery
Abstract
OBJECTIVES: An increased rate of platelet production is a possible cause of reduced antithrombotic response to once-daily aspirin. Markers of immature platelets (IPs), such as immature platelet count (IPC), immature platelet fraction (IPF), and mean platelet volume (MPV) might be useful for identifying patients who have an increase in their rate of platelet production. However, their potential as markers of platelet production has not been …
