Its an indirect measure of platelet production. An isolated report or value alone, especially without history and clinical findings is of no use. Anyway Immature platelet fraction is basically a research parameter and is not to be looked for, especially when most don't know how to interpret it. I as a clinical hematologist would like to say you dont pay it too much attention.
