Background: There are several methods for counting platelets, of which the international flow reference method (IRM) is considered to be the gold standard. We compared the platelet count given by this method to the count given by automated analyzers using other methods, such as optical fluorescence and impedance. Aims: The aim of this study is to compare the platelet counts obtained by Sysmex XE 2100 by Impedance (Sysmex-I), optical florescence (Sysmex-O) and reported (Sysmex-R) based on the switching algorithm and LH-750 by Impedance (LH-750) with the IRM in thrombocytopenic blood samples. To calculate the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV) and negative predictive value (NPV) of various technologies at the clinically relevant transfusion thresholds of 10 × 10 9 /l and 20 × 10 9 /l. Materials and Methods: A total of 118 blood samples with platelet count of |
