Study Notes

Red Blood Cell Parameters

Mean Corpuscular Volume (MCV) measures the average size of red blood cells.
The Red Blood Cell Distribution Width (RDW) measures the variation in size of red blood cells.
Mean Corpuscular Hemoglobin (MCH) measures the average amount of hemoglobin in red blood cells.
RDW reflects changes in the size differences of red blood cells.
Indices in red blood cells show the average characteristics of red blood cells.

Hemoglobin (Hgb) rules out anemia or polycythemia.
The concentration of hemoglobin per unit volume of red blood cells is indicated by the Mean Corpuscular Hemoglobin Concentration (MCHC).

White Blood Cell Parameters

The Differential Count reflects changes in the appearance or quantity of specific white blood cell types.

Platelet Count and Red Blood Cell Count

The Platelet Count helps to diagnose bleeding disorders or thrombotic disorders in patients.
The primary purpose of the Red Blood Cell (RBC) Count is to detect anemia or polycythemia.
