Platelet disorders can be divided into disorders of platelet function and number. Thrombocytopenias. Thrombocytopenia is defined as a platelet count of less than 150,000/mm 3. With normal platelet function, thrombocytopenia is rarely the cause of bleeding unless the count is less than 50,000/mm 3. Thrombocytopenia should always be confirmed by examination of a peripheral smear. It can be caused by decreased platelet production, increased destruction, sequestration, or a combination of these causes. Causative Factors
