Current testing constraints hinder neonatal and pediatric platelet evaluation; leaves open development of low-volume standardized assays with pediatric norms.
Platelet function testing in neonates and children remains challenging due to blood volume requirements and lack of standardization, highlighting the need for novel low-volume tests and pediatric reference intervals.
Hvas et al. (2017) conducted a review in Platelet function testing in pediatric patients. Platelet function testing was evaluated. Platelet function testing in neonates and children is limited by large blood volume requirements, poor standardization, and a lack of pediatric reference intervals.
