Description

The Corrected Count Increment (CCI) and Percentage Platelet Recovery (PPR) can be calculated using the body surface area, and one can be estimated from the other.


 

PPR in percent for a man =

= (0.002725 * (CCI)) / (fractional recovery of transfused platelets)

 

PPR in percent for a woman =

= (0.002507 * (CCI)) / (fractional recovery of transfused platelets)

 

where:

• The PPR is the approximation for platelet recovery based on the body surface area.

 

CCI for a man =

= (PPR in percent) * (fractional recovery of transfused platelets) / 0.002725

 

CCI for a woman =

= (PPR in percent) * (fractional recovery of transfused platelets) / 0.002507
