Hi my name is Matt, I've suffered with aggressive ITP (an autoimmune disease that kill off my platelets) for a long time now so hope this answers your question.
Normal measurement techniques can only go so far, so is slightly tricky to answer definitively
I had a platelet count of 1k or 1 per 1ml of blood the other day (rushed straight to hospital) which I was told is the minimum the lab could measure. I am still alive, however leaning on things, tight clothes, scratching skin, rubbing eyes all leads to bleeding, so an accident of any type could prove fatal due to a hemorrhage (especially the brain) which wouldn't stop without any platelets. Technically you could survive with a few to none platelet if you could guarantee no bursting of any blood vessels, which is almost impossible given our fragile bodies.
Best wishes

What was the lowest internal body temperature ever recorded in human being who went to survive?
53 F
Is it possible that a mushroom could survive being petrified?
Yes,Yes it is
Is it possible to survive being struck by lightning?
Yes, but you will probably have severe burns.
What does it mean if Platelet Parameters PDW is LOW?
Platelet parameters on PDW being low is indicative of the probability of increased bleeding. When a platelet count is low, a person may be asymptomatic until injury or surgery.
What would you need to do to survive on the planet Saturn?
Humans can Not survive on Saturn. The giant gas planet has a gravitational pull that would crush a human being in seconds. It is not possible for a human being to survive on Saturn for more than mere seconds.
What are platelet counts used for?
The primary functions of a platelet count are to assist in the diagnosis of bleeding disorders and to monitor patients who are being treated for any disease involving bone marrow failure.
Does minimum mean that you can't go higher than a amount given?
minimum-the lowest amount possible. maximum-highest amount possible. e.x.-20-40 20 being the min, 40 being the max.
Will one be able to survive a tornado if we hold on together?
That can help, but there are better things you can do to increase you chances of survival. The biggest danger in a tornado is not being sucked up but being hit by debris. The best idea is to get to the lowest floor of a sturdy building, especially and undergroudn basement or cellar. Try to put as many walls between yourself and the outside as possible.
Being the very lowest?
Being the rock bottom is a name for being the very lowest.
Is it possible for humans to live on Triton?
no, It probably isn't. It would be far too cold for any sentient being to survive there.
Is a platelet count of 42 serious?
A normal platelet count in a healthy individual is between 150,000 and 450,000 per microliter of blood. Ninety-five percent of healthy people will have platelet counts in this range. Some will have statistically abnormal platelet counts while having no demonstrable abnormality. However, if it is either very low or very high, the likelihood of an abnormality being present is higher.
What is the range of the pH scale from the lowest to the highest possible values?
The pH scale ranges from 0 to 14, with 0 being the most acidic, 7 being neutral, and 14 being the most basic.
