A member asked:
I have high mpv result in my current cbc, does it have to do with my mitral valve prolapse?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Similar acronyms MPV and MVP! Reference ranges are set so that several percent of healthy folks fall outside on either end. Mean Platelet Volume means nothing unless you're obviously seriously sick. Ignore it.
