Estimation of a cut-off value for immature platelet fraction (IPF) in predicting platelet recovery in dengue patients with thrombocytopenia
Thrombocytopenia is a common complication in dengue that sometimes necessitates platelet transfusion. Immature platelet fraction (IPF) measures immature platelets that indirectly reflect thrombopoiesis and is helpful in predicting platelet recovery. This study aimed to evaluate the role of IPF% and...

Zusammenfassung: | Thrombocytopenia is a common complication in dengue that sometimes necessitates platelet transfusion. Immature platelet fraction (IPF) measures immature platelets that indirectly reflect thrombopoiesis and is helpful in predicting platelet recovery.
This study aimed to evaluate the role of IPF% and identify its cut-off value in predicting platelet recovery in dengue patients with thrombocytopenia.
Serial platelet count and IPF results were obtained from fifty-four confirmed dengue patients with platelet count |
