      <Abstract>INTRODUCTION: Iron deficiency Anemia (IDA) is one of the world's most common and potentially treatable health problems. In IDA, there is an increased risk of thrombotic events due to microthrombosis-related hypercoagulability.AIMS AND OBJECTIVES: To compare and analyze blood cell(RBC) and platelet parameters inIron Deficiency Anemia (IDA) patients with individuals without anemia and to establish the correlation between platelet size parameters especially mean Platelet Volume (MPV), Platelet Distribution Width (PDW) with RBC parameters.MATERIALAND METHODS: Totally 150 subjects (75 with IDA and 75 without anemia) wereincluded. Blood samples analyzed for RBC parameters with iron profile and platelet parameters. RESULTS: The difference in mean hemoglobin (Hb), RBC count, hematocrit (HCT), Mean corpuscular volume (MCV), Mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH), Mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC), Red cell Distribution Width (RDW), Serum iron, serum ferritin levels and similarly the difference in mean Platelet count, Plateletcrit (PCT), MPV and PDW between patients with IDA and those without anemia were statistically significant (p</Abstract>
