The Relationship between Platelet Count and Haemoglobin Level
Journal Title: Scholars Academic Journal of Biosciences - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 8
Abstract
Abstract: The relationship between platelet count and haemoglobin (Hb) level was carried out in Owerri metropolis among 100 volunteer with respect to differences between platelet count within Hb(g/dl) level within platelet counts. Blood samples were collected into EDTA anticoagulant bottles for both platelet count and haemoglobin estimation. Statistical analysis showed significant difference (p<0.05) between Hb level that fell within platelet count 150-250xl09/L as (11.2±1.57) and the Hbg/dl level that fell within platelet count 251-400xl09/L as (9.9+2.24). Statistical analysis also show a significant difference (p<0.05) between platelet counts that fell within the Hb level less than lib g/dl as (259.6+77.4) and /platelet count that fell within lib level of 11-14 g/dl as (222.5+43.9). This implies that there is a relationship between low and high level of Hb on platelet count and low and high level of platelet count on haemoglobin level. Therefore, affirms that what affect the bone marrow would affect all the cells including the haemoglobin level and the platelets. Keywords: Blood components, Platelet count, Haemoglobin level.
