Description

This is a laboratory diagnostic technique for assessing the state of the body and finding a source of pathology. This analysis can be prescribed by a doctor of any specialty. Any disease, whether inflammatory, oncological, autoimmune or metabolic, affects the qualitative and quantitative composition of the blood.

In which cases the doctor may prescribe a general blood test:

The general blood test includes the following indicators: red blood cells, hemoglobin, white blood cells, color index, hematocrit, reticulocytes, platelets, SOE.

The leukocyte formula in some laboratories is signed by default, in some a doctor’s note is needed. It includes the following indicators: eosinophils, basophils, stick-nuclear and segmentonuclear neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes.

A rhesus factor assay is usually given together with a blood group assay. Blood is usually taken from the vein (in some cases, blood can be taken from the finger). No special preparation is required for the analysis. However, it is undesirable to take the analysis immediately after eating (at least 4 hours must pass from the moment of the last meal).

Our laboratory uses the state-of-the-art MLPA method for rhesus factor genotyping, which reveals the carrier status of 0, 1, or 2 copies of the RHD gene, as well as identifying particular mutant forms of this gene with high reliability and efficacy.

To conduct the test, it is necessary to donate blood from the vein.

Speaking about the norm of almost any laboratory analysis, you need to know that laboratories can work at different installations, use different methods of analysis and different reagents.

Reference values of the norm:
up to 1 year: 180 – 550 10 ^ 9 / l
from 1 to 6 years: 180 – 500 10 ^ 9 / l
from 6 to 12 years old: 180 – 450 10 ^ 9 / l
from 12 to 16 years old: 180 – 450 10 ^ 9 / l
Adults: 150 – 400 10 ^ 9 / l
