Venous and skin puncture blood counts were compared in 80 paired samples from 33 children, aged 6 months to 14 years, and 10 adults. Significantly higher mean values for Hb, RBC, haematocrit and neutrophils were found in skin puncture blood in children whereas platelet values were slightly higher in venous blood. Similar results were found in adult samples. Only occasionally were differences likely to be of clinical importance. The excellent comparability of paired platelet counts, at variance to that found in some previous studies, indicates that skin puncture blood can be used for platelet estimation providing an appropriate counting method is used.
对33名6个月至14岁儿童和10名成人的80对样本进行了静脉穿刺血计数和皮肤穿刺血计数的比较。发现儿童皮肤穿刺血中血红蛋白、红细胞、血细胞比容和中性粒细胞的平均值显著更高，而静脉血中的血小板值略高。在成人样本中也发现了类似结果。只有偶尔差异可能具有临床重要性。与之前一些研究的结果不同，配对血小板计数具有极佳的可比性，这表明如果使用合适的计数方法，皮肤穿刺血可用于血小板计数。
