Abstract
Alterations in the platelet count, mainly the decrease in the number of platelets called plateletpenia or thrombocytopenia, are frequently observed in patients admitted to the Intensive Care Unit. Different factors intervene in its development, the multifactorial cause being more frequent. Thrombocytopenia in patients hospitalized in Intensive Care can be a predictive factor of mortality. In the present study, the causes of thrombocytopenia in critically ill patients, the complications derived from it, and their relationship as a predictor of poor evolution are analyzed.
