A complete blood count (CBC), also known as a full blood count (FBC), is a set of medical laboratory tests that provide information about the cells in a person's blood.The CBC indicates the counts of white blood cells, red blood cells and platelets, the concentration of hemoglobin, and the hematocrit (the volume percentage of red blood cells).
Normal range: 80–100 fL (femtoliter) Mean corpuscular hemoglobin ... 40% Hb: 100 grams/liter 10 grams/deciliter (deci-is 10 −1) RBC: 5E+12 cells/liter
The 1 μL is only made of a proportion of red cells (e.g. 40%) with the rest of the volume composed of plasma. Multiply by the hematocrit (a unitless quantity) to take this into account. 2 × 10 − 7 μ L / c e l l × 0.4 = 8 × 10 − 8 μ L / c e l l {\displaystyle 2\times 10^{-7}\ \mathrm {\mu L/cell} \times 0.4=8\times 10^{-8}\ \mathrm ...
The standard definition of a reference range for a particular measurement is defined as the interval between which 95% of values of a reference population fall into, in such a way that 2.5% of the time a value will be less than the lower limit of this interval, and 2.5% of the time it will be larger than the upper limit of this interval, whatever the distribution of these values.
Polycythemia is defined as serum hematocrit (Hct) or hemoglobin (HgB) exceeding normal ranges expected for age and sex, typically Hct >49% in healthy adult men and >48% in women, or HgB >16.5 g/dL in men or >16.0 g/dL in women. [8] The definition is different for neonates and varies by age in children. [9] [10]
It is normally 40.7–50.3% for males and 36.1–44.3% for females. [3] It is a part of a person's complete blood count results, [4] along with hemoglobin concentration, white blood cell count and platelet count.
The widely used [21] rule calculating normal maximum ESR values in adults (98% confidence limit) is given by a formula devised in 1983 from a study of ≈1000 individuals over the age of 20: [22] The normal values of ESR in men is age (in years) divided by 2; for women, the normal value is age (in years) plus 10, divided by 2.
