Completed

• Conditions: Thrombocytosis; S. Pneumoniae Infection

• Registration Number: NCT01194349
• Lead Sponsor: Taipei Medical University WanFang Hospital

Brief Summary

Thrombocytosis, mostly reactive in nature, is common in pediatric hospitalized patients with infections. Streptococcus pneumoniae (S. Pneumoniae) is the most common pathogen.
