When CBC report is normal?
What do the results mean?
| Blood component | Normal levels |
|---|---|
| red blood cell | In men: 4.32-5.72 million cells/mcL In women: 3.90-5.03 million cells/mcL |
| hemoglobin | In men: 135-175 grams/L In women: 120-155 grams/L |
| hematocrit | In men: 38.8-50.0 percent In women: 34.9-44.5 percent |
| white blood cell count | 3,500 to 10,500 cells/mcL |
What is abnormal CBC report?
Abnormal levels of red blood cells, hemoglobin, or hematocrit may be a sign of anemia, heart disease, or too little iron in your body. Low white cell count may be a sign of an autoimmune disorder, bone marrow disorder, or cancer. High white cell count may be a sign of an infection or a reaction to medicine.
What is CBC standard?
A standard CBC measures the WBC count, which is the total number of white blood cells in a sample of blood. A common variation of the CBC is the complete blood count with differential.
What diseases can be detected by CBC?
These are some of the health problems that can be identified by a CBC:
- anemia (low iron)
- autoimmune disorders.
- bone marrow problems.
- cancer.
- dehydration.
- heart disease.
- infection.
- inflammation.
What is RBC count?
An RBC count is a blood test that measures how many red blood cells (RBCs) you have. RBCs contain hemoglobin, which carries oxygen. How much oxygen your body tissues get depends on how many RBCs you have and how well they work. Blood transports oxygen and nutrients to body tissues and returns waste and carbon dioxide.
Does CBC show cholesterol?
Our Standard Health Test Panel is combination of lab tests and includes our Basic Health Test Panel, our Thyroid Panel with TSH, and our Complete Blood Count (CBC). Together these test panels measure and evaluate the body as a whole and include a cholesterol breakdown.
What is normal hemoglobin?
Normal results for adults vary, but in general are: Male: 13.8 to 17.2 grams per deciliter (g/dL) or 138 to 172 grams per liter (g/L) Female: 12.1 to 15.1 g/dL or 121 to 151 g/L.
What is a normal hemoglobin?
What is low Haemoglobin?
Hemoglobin (Hb or Hgb) is a protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen throughout the body. A low hemoglobin count is generally defined as less than 13.2 grams of hemoglobin per deciliter (132 grams per liter) of blood for men and less than 11.6 grams per deciliter (116 grams per liter) for women.
What are MCV and MCH levels?
Your MCH value is related to two other values, mean corpuscular volume (MCV) and mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC). Together, MCH, MCV, and MCHC are sometimes referred to as red blood cell indices. MCV is a measurement of the average size of your red blood cells. MCH results tend to mirror MCV results.
What is MCV MCH and MCHC?
Definition. Mean corpuscular volume (MCV), mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH), and mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC) were first introduced by Wintrobe in 1929 to define the size (MCV) and hemoglobin content (MCH, MCHC) of red blood cells.
