What is Capillary Fragility Test Procedure about?

The capillary fragility test, also known as the tourniquet test, assesses the integrity of capillary walls and identifies potential platelet deficiencies. The procedure involves inflating a blood pressure cuff to measure the number of petechiae that appear after deflation, with results graded from 1+ to 4+. Abnormal findings may indicate various conditions affecting capillary fragility, and precautions are necessary for patients with existing bleeding disorders.
