By knowing about infant variations in blood count, nurses can explain to their patients that:

  2. the early high white blood count is normal at birth and should decrease rapidly.
  3. platelet counts will be higher than in adults for a few months.
  4. even a modest vitamin K deficiency will mean a problem with the blood's ability to clot properly.
