Thrombocytopenia Thrombocytopenia results from one or more of three processes: (1) decreased bone marrow production; (2) sequestration, usually in an enlarged spleen; and/or (3) increased platelet destruction. Disorders of production may be either inherited or acquired. In evaluating a patient with thrombocytopenia, a key step is to review the peripheral blood smear and to first rule out "pseudothrombocytopenia," particularly in a patient without an apparent cause for the thrombocytopenia. Pseudothrombocytopenia (Fig. 109-1B) is an in vitro artifact resulting from platelet agglutination via antibodies (usually IgG, but also IgM and IgA) when the calcium content is decreased by blood collection in ethylenediamine tetraacetic. | Chapter 109.

If a low platelet count is obtained in EDTA-anticoagulated blood a blood smear can be evaluated and a platelet count determined in blood collected into sodium citrate blue-top tube or heparin green-top tube or ideally a smear of freshly obtained unanticoagulated blood such as from a finger stick can be examined.
