Figure 3

Figures 3(a), and 3(b). The mean platelet counts were similar throughout the study period, while the percentage of patients with thrombocytopenia was higher in the 2 mg/kg arm on postoperative day 2. At 2 days postoperatively, 4% of the 1.5 mg/kg group’s patients had thrombocytopenia while 28% of the 2 mg/kg group had thrombocytopenia, $P=.04$.
