They are essential for healing wounds and stopping bleeding. A normal platelet count is 150,000–450,000 platelets per microliter. A low platelet count can put you at risk for uncontrolled bleeding.</description><pubDate>Sat, 28 Feb 2026 23:57:00 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title>Understanding Platelet Count: Normal, Low, and High Levels</title><link>https://thekingsleyclinic.com/resources/understanding-platelet-count-normal-low-and-high-levels/</link><description>Platelets, also known as thrombocytes, are small cell fragments that play a crucial role in blood clotting and wound healing.

Although much more numerous (150,000 to 400,000 per cubic mm) than the white cells, they occupy a much smaller fraction of the volume of the blood because of their relatively minute size.</description><pubDate>Tue, 21 Apr 2026 04:54:00 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title>Physiology, Platelet - StatPearls - NCBI Bookshelf</title><link>https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/books/NBK470328/</link><description>Platelets are small blood cells with several physiological purposes; the best studied is thrombosis activation.
