The Role of Mean Platelet Volume as a Predictor of Mortality in Critically Ill Patients: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Abstract: Background. An increase in the mean platelet volume (MPV) has been proposed as a novel prognostic indicator in critically ill patients. Objective. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to determine whether there is an association between MPV and mortality in critically ill patients. Methods. We did electronic search in Medline, Scopus, and Embase up to November 2015. Results. Eleven observational studies, involving 3724 patients, were included. The values of initial MPV in nonsurvivors and survivo… Show more

“…In adults, some studies showed that the initial MPV, as a predictor of mortality in critically ill patients, was not significantly associated with in-hospital mortality (19), although other studies showed that elevated MPV during hospitalization was a predictor of mortality in critically ill adults (9,20). High MPV was suggested to be associated with overall survival in various diseases such as cancer, cardiac disease, septic shock, kidney injury, and patients hospitalized in a respiratory intensive care unit (21)(22)(23)(24)(25).…”

“…This has been investigated in Cavalier King Charles Spaniels due to their hereditary macrothrombocytopenia, and in these dogs, a calculated plateletcrit could be superior to a platelet count for determining platelet mass . The mean platelet volume (MPV) can be a useful indication of the body's regenerative response to a reduced platelet mass; however, this has not become a routine measurement in veterinary hematologic analysis . The current study used only platelet count and review of a blood smear, so it could have benefitted from better assessment of platelet mass.…”

“…The MPV is calculated by automated blood analyzers, and is thought to be a marker of platelet activation in recent years [14-15]. Elevated MPV is also considered as a novel prognostic indicator in critically ill patients [16-19]. Moreover, some studies demonstrated an inverse relationship between MPV and platelet counts in critically ill patients.…”
