Spurious elevation of the electronically determined mean corpuscular volume and hematocrit caused by hyperglycemia.

abstract：:Platelet volume measurements have been used to differentiate consumptive and hypoplastic thrombocytopenia. Since thrombocytopenia is a frequent complication of neonatal sepsis, the authors explored the utility of correlating mean platelet volume (MVP) and platelet distribution width (PDW) with bacteremia. In a sample ...
