Impact of Red Cell and Platelet Distribution Width in Patients of Medical Intensive Care Unit
Introduction The red blood cell distribution width (RDW) is a measurement of variations in the size of red blood cells. As the width increases, the rate of mortality also increases, although the reason for it is still not known. On the other hand, platelet distribution width (PDW) is also useful in...
