MPV is an acronym for mean platelet volume. The MPV is a measurement of the average size of platelets. A high MPV usually means that there is good platelet function.
High MPV means that you have more than normal blood platelets. Your doctor will probably run more tests to check for things like leukemia.

MPV is mean platelet volume. The average normal range for MPV is a blood test is around 7.5-10.5 fl. A low MPV can mean many things. In a female during her reproductive years her MPV will be low for the first few days of menses [her period]. Platelet count is high in a woman after delivering a child and newborns have naturally low levels. Basically all it means is you have a low platelet count. This in turn puts you at a risk for bruising and bleeding. The causes of low MVP are varied and not always known. Low levels can be caused by viral infections, especially AIDS; Genetic disorders like Lupus; Hemolytic disorders, like Anemia; an overactive spleen, and taking drugs that low your count; like heparin.
An MPV blood count is a mean platelet volume test that measures the average size of the platelets found in your blood. This test is usually part of a CBC test.
Mazda MPV was created in 1989.
Mean platelet volume is the size of the platelets. The higher the MPV the larger the platelet size and the lower the MPV the smaller the platelets. High MPV can cause a person to be at a higher risk for strokes and heart attacks. Low MPV can cause a person to be at risk for bleeding problems (too much bleeding that is slow to stop). There are some natural anti coagulants that help lower MPV blood like flax seed oil and fish oil. More information on the link provided below.
