A platelet count of 600+ is generally defined as 600 x 10^9/L, which is thrombocytosis, and untreated increases the risk of thrombotic disorders, especially in patients with underlying conditions such as hypertension, hyperlipidemia and coronary artery disease.
The normal value of platelet count is (100~300)×10^9/L, mild increase is (500~700)×10^9/L; moderate increase is (700~900)×10^9/L; severe increase is (900~1000)×10^9/L; and very severe increase is >1000 ×10^9/L.
1. Thrombocytosis is categorized as reactive and primary. Primary increase can be seen in chronic myeloproliferative diseases such as primary thrombocythemia and other blood diseases, which need to pay constant attention to platelet counts and focus on the treatment of the primary disease, such as primary thrombocythemia to be hydroxyurea oral and so on.
2. Reactive increase may be caused by acute blood loss, cancer, iron deficiency, splenectomy, infection, inflammatory diseases or complications of surgery. For secondary thrombocytosis, there is no need to be overly concerned, and it can be gradually restored to the normal level after active treatment of the causes of platelet increase or targeted medication. For example, patients with acute blood loss should be transfused with component blood.
When the platelet 600 × 10^9 / L more, you need to go to the hospital at the first time, under the guidance of the physician, to carry out relevant examinations to clarify the cause of the disease, early diagnosis, early treatment.
