Core Tip |
This is as a retrospective observational study of platelet counts in 305 infants aged two years or less who were hospitalized for bronchiolitis. Thrombocytosis (platelet count > 500 × 109/L) was frequent, occurring in 88 (29%; 95%CI: 24%-34%), more commonly in younger infants with the platelet count declining with age. There was no significant association with the duration of illness, temperature on admission, white blood cell count, serum C-reactive protein concentration, length of hospital stay, admission to the intensive care unit, death, thrombotic or hemorrhagic complications. |
