What it measures

Platelets are small cell fragments in the blood that clump together to help it clot. The test counts how many are in a litre of blood. It is part of a full blood count.

Why people test it

Typical range

Ranges vary between labs, with the method used, age and sex, and your report shows the lab's own range. One NHS trust lab gives 140 to 400 ×10⁹/L for adults. Source: Gloucestershire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust: haematology reference ranges.

Finger-prick or vein?

A vein draw is usually advised. Platelets clump in a slow finger-prick sample and small clots form, which can make the count read falsely low.

Every Platelet Count test, cheapest first

Cheapest first, whether the test is of Platelet Count alone (marked "single-marker test") or a panel that includes it. Each price is all-in: the test and the cheapest way to have the blood taken that suits this marker (a vein draw), before any discount code.
