[RBCs)
[after age 20 in the vertebrae,
sternum, ribs, iliac)
- Hgb Levels: 14-16g/dL in males / 12-
14g/dl females
Cytic = Size of RBCs
Cytic vs Chromic
Chromic = Amount of Hgb
, MCV: Mean corpuscular volume -
[average size rbc]
MCHC: normal Mean corpuscular
MCV and MCHC Hgb concentration - [average amount
of hemoglobin in the RBCs compared
to the average size of the RBCs. The
amount of hemoglobin that was there
- Normocytic: Normal RBC size
Morphology Size [MCV = 83-99)
or Erythrocyte - Microcytic: Small RBC size
Volume Cytic [MCV = 50-82)
Values - Macrocytic: Large RBC size
[MCV is > 100)
- Normochromic: Normal amount of
Hgb [MCHC -Average amount of
hemoglobin in the RBCs compared to
the average size of the RBCs.
Chromic Values [MCHC = 32-36)
[Hgb content) - Hypochromic: Low amount of Hgb
[MCHC is < 32)
- Hyperchromic: Increased amount of
Hgb
[MCHC is > 36)
, - Defend the body against foreign
proteins
- Made in the bone marrow
Leukocytes - 9,000/mm^3
[WBCs) - CBC w/ Diff shows: Leukocytes
broken down into:
Neutrophils, Basophils, PMNs
[polymorphonulcear), Bands
-Immature Leukocytes
- Indicate an infective process
- Increase in bands = 12 to 20 or more
Bands - {Infective
= shift to the left indicating a bacterial
process
infection
- If bands are not increased it is a shift
to the right and a viral infection
