    The document lists critical lab values for hemoglobin, platelet count, absolute neutrophil count, prothrombin time, and activated partial thromboplastin time for different age groups. Hemoglobin levels of 6.0 g/dL or lower for those over 14 days and adults and 10.0 g/dL or lower for those 0-14 days are considered critical. Platelet counts of 20x109/L or lower and absolute neutrophil counts of 0.5x109/L or lower are also critical for all ages. Prothrombin times of 5.0 INR or higher and activated partial thromboplastin times of 100 seconds or higher are critical for all ages as well.
