Complete Blood Count
Most automated instruments directly read the
WBC, RBC, hemoglobin and MCV directly
Hematocrits are a calculated parameter
Correlation checks between the hemoglobin
and hematocrits are a significant part of quality
assurance
“Rule of Three.” The formulas for correlation
checks/rule of three are as follows:
Hgb x3=Hct ± 3 or RBC x3 =Hgb.
Complete Blood Count
Automated machines present a pictorial
representation of the data registered as
either a histogram or a scatterplot
Most machines also offer automated

MCHC = Hb/Hct 320-360g/L
Morphological Classifications of
Anemia
There are three morphologic classification of
anemia:
Normochromic normocytic anemia
MCV 80-100 fL
MCHC 31-36%
Microcytic, hypochromic anemia
MCV < 80fL
MCHC < 30%
Red cells are microcytic, smaller and lacking hemoglobin
Macrocytic normochromic anemia
MCV >100 fL
Red cells are larger than 8 µ

Macrocytic >100 > 31 320-360 MA, pernicious

Microcytic < 80 < 27 < 320 IDA, thalassemia
Hypochromic sideroblastic

Calculating Red Cell Indices and Their Role in
Sample Integrity
MCV is one of the most stable parameters in the CBC
Used to evaluate pre-analytical and analytical specimen integrity
Hematocrit = PCV

chemotherapy. C: Dysplastic neutrophil (pseudopelgeroid cell) in case of myelodysplastic

neutrophils in the hereditary abnormality called Pelger-Huet anomaly. D: Degenerating neutrophil.
