ASCP calculations
Question | Answer |
---|---|
TSAT (Transferrin saturation) | [TSAT= (Fe/TIBC) x 100] or [TSAT=(Fe/TF) X 70.9] |
TIBC | UIBC + Serum Iron = TIBC |
UIBC | TIBC - Iron = UIBC |
Indirect bilirubin (unconjugated) | Total bilirubin - Direct bilirubin |
LDL ( Friedewald) | Cholesterol - HDL - (TG/5) = LDL |
Non-HDL | Cholesterol-HDL = Non HDL |
A/G Ratio | Albumin / (total protein-albumin) |
Anion Gap | Na - (Co2 + Cl) |
Creatine clearance calculation | (urine creatinine/serum creatinine) x ( TV(mls)/collection time) x (1.73/BSA) |
Beers Law | A = εlc A = absorbance , ε= constant, molar absorptivity, l= path length c= concentration |
Corrected WBC counts when > 10 nRBCs present | observed WBC count x (100 ÷ [nRBC + 100]) |
Manual hemocytometer counts | 1. Take average cell count from the four sets of 16 squares 2. Multiply that number by 10,000 3. Multiply by 5 ( to correct from dilution) |
Mean cell volume (MCV) | [hematocrit % x 10] / RBC |
Mean cell hemoglobin (MCH) | [Hb x 10] / RBC |
Mean cell hemoglobin concentration ( MCHC) | [Hb x 100] / [Hematocrit %] |
BSA | Square root ((Ht (cm) x Wt (kg))/3600) |
Estimated average glucose | (28.7 x A1C) -46.7 |
Globulin | Total Protein - albumin |
Relative index (if total CK > 100) | [(CK-MB)/CK] x100 |
VLDL | Chol - HDL - LDL |
24 Hour Urine Amylase | Urine amylase x (total volume/1000) |
24 Hour Urine Chloride | Urine chloride x (total volume/1000) |
24 Urine Creatinine | [Urine Creatinine x (total volume/100)] / wght (kg) |
Urine Malb/Creatnine ratio | (Urine malb/urine Creatinine) x 100 |
24 Hour Osmol | Urine Osmo x (Total volume/1000) |
