Thrombocytopenia may be associated with
Hyperslenism
Asprin prevents platelet aggregation by inhibiting the action of which enzyme?
Cyclo-Oxygenase
Normal platelet adhesion depends upon what

several hours after birth, a baby boy develops petechiae and purpura and a hemorrhagic diathesis. The platelet count is 18 x 109/L. What is the most likely explanation for the low platelet count?
Petechiae are pinpoint, round spots that form on the skin due to bleeding. They can appear as small red or purple patches just under the skin.
Purpura are red, purple, or brown blood spots that appear on your skin
Neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia
