Thrombocytopenia is a decreased platelet count.
Normal platelet count should range from 150,000 to 400,000 per microliter.
Platelets (thrombocytes) are NOT cells...They are just pieces of the megakaryocyte "their parents"...That's why platelets do neither have a nucleus nor can divide.

Hemostasis is defined as “cessation of blood bleeding”.

There are 2 types of hemostasis:
1. Primary hemostasis: formation of weak, temporary platelet plug (by platelets).
2. Secondary hemostasis: formation of stronger fibrin meshwork (by coagulation factors).
