Qualitative platelet defects - what does this mean

Qualitative platelet defects are disorders caused by genetic mutations which affect the production, structure, or function of platelets, resulting in abnormal clotting and bleeding. these defects can be inherited or acquired, and can range from mild to severe.

What happens during the disease - qualitative platelet defects

Qualitative platelet defects are caused by a variety of genetic and acquired disorders that result in a decrease in the number of platelets, or thrombocytes, produced by the bone marrow. these disorders can be caused by mutations in genes that are involved in the production of platelets, or by conditions such as myelodysplastic syndrome, myelofibrosis, and aplastic anemia that can interfere with the production of platelets. in addition, acquired conditions such as liver disease, autoimmune disorders, and certain medications can cause a decrease in the number of platelets produced. this can lead to an increased risk of bleeding, bruising, and other complications.
