In a hematology test, PLT stands for platelet count. Platelets are small cell fragments in the blood that help with clotting and preventing excessive bleeding. Abnormal platelet counts can indicate various medical conditions such as thrombocytopenia (low platelet count) or thrombocytosis (high platelet count).
A low platelet count generally puts an individual at high risk of bleeding, or hemorrhage. The underlying cause of a low platelet count could be several diseases ranging from a something benign to HIV or leukemia.
