CBC Report-2
CBC
HB WBC, leukocytes Platelet x1000
11.5-14 g/dl (x1000) 4-11
150-450
Hct 35-45% • Neutr (segm)PNL
40-60% MPV
MCV 75-86 fl
• Lymph 20-40%
MCHC 27-33%
• Band (stab, staff)
Retics 0.5-2% <5% (immature)
RDW 11-15 • Basophil 0.5-1 %
• Eosinophil 1-4%
• Monocytes 2- 8%
• Shift to left, I/T
ratio
• Toxic granulation
• Blast cell
• Hb>16 gm/dl, Hct>60% polycythemia
• Low Hb, low Hct, Low plat, Low WBC.
Pancytopenia as aplastic anemia, fanconi anemia,
leukemia, B12 def, hypersplenism (??retics), (??
MCV)
• Low Hb, low Hct only = Anemia
low MCV <75, low MCHC ;microcytic hypochromi
An ( Fe def an, hemolytic An thalas, An of ch
infecion)
nor MCV 75-86 fl , normocytic An ( aplastic,
leukemia, blood loss)
high MCV > 90 Fl, macrocytic An ( folic acid def,
B12 def)
RDW ( 11-15) measure variation in size of RBS (MCV), the
higher RDW indicates more variation in size (anisocytosis),
Fe def. anemia, B12, folic acid def. increase RDW
Retics high >2% in hemolytic An, hypersplenism
If pancytopenia & low retics < 0.5 %= aplasic An
if pancytopenia & high retics= hypersplenism
If only anemia & high retics = hemolytic An.
(Fe def. after 3 days of iron ttt has high retics)
Platelets <150,000= thrombocytopenia, ITP
Megakaryocyte seen in blood film , bone marrow
has defective budding
If >450,000/mm3 (thrombocytosis
Kawasaki disease, reactive thrombocytosis with
hem An, infection)
Mean platelet volumes MPV 9.4–12.3 fL (femtoliter)
low platelet count, low MPV (bone marrow disorders
that slow down or decrease platelet production e.g.
aplastic anemia.
high platelet count, low MPV (infection, inflammation)
Toxic vacuoles
Shift to left, immature /total (I/T) ratio
Blast cells in leukemia
HB 11.5-14 g/dl
Hct 35-45%
MCV 75-86 fl
MCHC 27-33%
Retics 0.5-2%
WBC (x1000) 4-11
Band <5%
Platelet (x1000) 150-450
Evaluation of a CBC Report
• Hb
• RBCs count
• WBC count
• Platelet count
• RBC indices :MCV, MCH
• Reticulocyte count as % of RBCs
• Thalassemia
• Lead poisoning
Macrocytosis MCV >100 fL
Macrocytic cells (large cells), and are found with
such conditions as
- Megaloblastic anemia,
- Folate or Vitamin B12 deficiency,
- liver disease,
- Post-splenectomy,
- Chemotherapy or hypothyroidism.
