Question | Answer |
---|---|
Used for basic screening purposes related to hematologic and other body systems | CBC |
Measures the number of circulating RBCs, what are the normal values for the male and females? | RBC count, male: 4.6-6.0 and females: 4.0-5.0 |
Indirect count of RBC number and volume-measures % of the total blood volume of RBCs, what are male and female normal values? | Hematocrit, male: 43-49% female: 38-44% |
Main intracellular protein of erthrocytes, what are male/female normal values? | Hemoglobin, male: 13.5 g/dL Female:12-15 g/dL |
what is the total WBC count, % of neutrophils,lymphocytes, monocytes, basophils, eosinophils | 4,500-11,000 microliter, 50-70%, 25-35%, 4-6%,0.4-1.0%, 1-3% |
Most abudant cation in the ECF, maintains osmotic pressure, acid-base balance/transmission of nerve impulses.Also regulates renal retention and excreion of water, maintains systemic BP and normal value is 135-145 mEq/L | Sodium, Na -NATREMIA |
Primary cation of ICF, nerve conducton,muscle function-not conserve inside body. Normal values 3.5-5.0 mEq/L | Potassium, K-Kalemia |
Helps evaluate the pH status & electrolyte status, normal values 22-26 mEq/L | CO2 |
Major anion predominantly in the extracellular spaces, maintains cellular intergrity normal value 97-107 mEq/L | Chloride-Chloremia |
used to evaluate parathyroid function and calcium metabolism (monitor pts with renal failure& renal transplantion) serum-4.5-5.5 mEq/l or 8.2-10.2 mg/dl -Ionized-2.2-2.5 mEq/l or 4.64-5.28 mg/dl | Calcium-Calcemia |
Assists in the interpretation of studies related to parathyroid and calcium abnormalities, part organic and inorganic/combines with Calcium in the skeleton. Normal values 1.7-2.6 mEq/l or 2.5-4.5 mg/dL | Phosphorus-phosphatemia |
Intracellular, 1/2 located in bone, critical for metabolic process-binds to ATP. Normal value 1.6-2.6 mEq/l | Mg |
Indirect measurement of renal function and GFR and liver function, normal value is 8-21 mg/dl | Blood Urea Nitrogen, BUN |
Daily production depends on muscle mass and is directly proportional to renal excretory function,renal disorders will cause abnormal elevation. Normal 0.5-1.5 mg/dl | Serum Creatine |
most commonly to evaluate diabetic patients, driven by insulin into target cells to be metabolized to glycogen, amino acids and fatty acids | Glucose, if fasting normal value; 60-110 mg/dl, if 60-90 yrs of age; 80-115 mg/dl, if 91 yrs old; 75-120 mg/dl |
Used for assessing bleeding disorders that occur with liver disease, uremia,or malignancies | Platelets normal values 150,000-400,000 |
Measures the time for a clot to form- to detect abnormalities with platelets and vascular | Bleeding time, Ivy method; 3-7 min, Duke; 1-3 min |
to monitor heparin therapy, detect incubating anticoagulants, detect deficiencies in the intrinsic coagulation system | APPT (activated partial Thromboplastin Time) 25-39 sec |
Large protein synthesized bt the liver, essential to blood clotting mechanism | Fibrinogen, 200-400 mg/dl |
