Abstract Objective: To investigate whether immature platelet fraction (IPF%) predicate imminent platelet recovery after chemotherapy for the cancer patients, so that unnecessary platelet transfusion can be avoided. Methods: A total of 186 patients were enrolled and divided into blood transfusion group and non-transfusion group. IPF% of anticoagulated blood with EDTA-K2 was evaluated by means of the IPF master program equipped with SYSMEX XE-5000. The differences between IPF% and PLT of blood transfusion group were analyzed dynamically. The ROC curve was performed to evaluate the effect of those indictors in predicting whether PLT transfusion was needed. Results: The IPF% in the blood transfusion group [5.10% (2.48%, 10.68%)] was higher than that in the non-transfusion group [1.85% (1.20%, 3.50%)], and the blood platelet count in the blood transfusion group [35.00×109/L (12.75×109/L, 123.75×109/L)] was lower than in the non-transfusion group [150.50×109/L(94.75×109/L, 209.00×109/L)] (P<0.05). There was an increase of IPF% during PLT nadir. The results of ROC analysis demonstrated that there was no statistical difference between the AUC of PLT and IPF%. Conclusion: Increased IPF% indicates PLT destruction in peripheral blood, but IPF% measurement lacks the predictive power regarding imminent PLT recovery in cancer patients. Therefore decisions regarding prophylactic PC transfusions should not be based on this parameter.
