Platelets are one of the components of the blood. Thrombocytopenia is a condition in which the platelet count in the blood is lower than the normal value. Platelets play a key role in blood clotting and are needed to heal the wounds and stop bleeding. Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura is an autoimmune disorder of the blood in which the body self- destroys the platelets causing a deficiency.
