Blood tests are one of the most commonly recommended medical tests to diagnose various health issues. Doctors often recommend a Complete Blood Count (CBC) test to assess the functioning and health of different organs. Besides measuring levels of different components of blood, a CBC test in Ghaziabad can reveal how well the different organs work and monitor issues like diabetes or cholesterol. The test can show how the body is responding to treatments or medicine.

The different disorders that a CBC test in Ghaziabad can detect include infections, blood clotting disorders, anaemia, autoimmune disorders, and blood cancers. A CBC test in Ghaziabad includes more than 20 tests. Some of these tests include:

  • Haemoglobin: This test reveals the haemoglobin levels in the blood by indicating low or high levels of red blood cells.
  • Packed-cell Volume (PCV) test: Also known as the hematocrit test, it measures the proportion of red blood cells in the blood. Too less or high levels of these cells may indicate several health problems and may necessitate a blood transfusion.
  • RBC Count: This test measures the number of red blood cells in the blood. It is also known as an erythrocyte count.
  • Mean Corpuscular Volume (MCV): This test measures the average size of the red blood cells. Several health conditions related to blood, such as anaemia, iron deficiency, or lead poisoning, can interfere with the MCV count.
  • Mean Corpuscular Hemoglobin (MCH): This is a part of the CBC test in Ghaziabad which reveals iron levels in the blood.
  • Mean Corpuscular Hemoglobin Concentration (MCHC): Similar to MCH, this test confirms the average amount of haemoglobin in red blood cells.
  • Total Leucocyte Count (TLC): The count measures the number of leucocytes or white blood cells in the blood. They determine our body’s ability to fight infections and diseases.

Apollo 24|7 offers a Complete Blood Count (CBC) Test in Ghaziabad at all clinics. Patients can also avail the option of home sample collection. Doctors are likely to suggest to individuals to get a CBC test in Ghaziabad if they exhibit the following symptoms:

  • Weakness and fatigue
  • Dizziness
  • Frequent fever
  • Nausea or vomiting
  • Abnormal inflammation in any part of the body
  • Joint pain
  • Abnormal heart rate

Individuals can get reports of the CBC test in Ghaziabad within 24 hours. With Apollo 24|7, individuals can also get the reports delivered at home.

The doctor may recommend follow-up tests if the count of one or more type of blood cells  appear abnormal. The typical range of blood components includes the following:

  • Haemoglobin normal range:

Male (ages 15+): 13.0 - 17.0 g/dL

Female (ages 15+): 11.5 - 15.5 g/dL

  • Platelet Count normal range:

Adult: 150,000 - 400,000/mL

  • White blood cell (WBC) normal range:

Adult: 5,000-10,000/mL

Levels below or above the mentioned ranges are considered abnormal. Low haemoglobin indicates anaemia and low platelet count may indicate leukaemia or other forms of cancer, and low WBC count can increase the risk of infections.

With one blood sample, the test can diagnose a number of disorders and infections. Occasionally, a CBC test in Ghaziabad can detect the condition even before the symptoms arise. In such cases, doctors can establish early treatment.
 

faqFrequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What is CBC and its normal range?

CBC stands for Complete Blood Count, a common blood test that measures different components of the blood including red blood cells (RBC), white blood cells (WBC), and platelets. Normal ranges vary but generally include: RBC 4.5-5.5 million/µL for males and 4.2-5.4 million/µL for females, WBC 4,000-11,000 cells/mcL, and platelets 150,000-450,000 cells/mcL.

What lifestyle adjustments should I consider before undergoing a CBC test to ensure the most accurate results?

For a CBC test, there are usually no specific lifestyle changes required. However, you must inform your doctor about any medication or supplements you're currently taking because some medicines might influence your blood count. It's always recommended to stay hydrated, get enough rest and maintain a balanced diet.

If my CBC test results fall outside the normal range, what are the next steps? Should I consult a specialist or make specific lifestyle changes?

If your CBC test results fall outside the normal range, it doesn't necessarily mean you have a health condition. However, you should consult your doctor or a specialist who can interpret the results accurately and guide you on the next course of action. It could involve further testing or specific lifestyle changes based on what they find.

Are there any alternative or complementary tests to consider alongside a CBC test for a more comprehensive assessment?

Yes, alongside a CBC test, other tests like a blood chemistry panel, coagulation tests, and genetic tests might also be recommended by your doctor for a comprehensive assessment of your health.

Can children or adolescents benefit from a CBC test, and if so, at what age should it be initiated?

Yes, children and adolescents can benefit from a CBC test. It helps in diagnosing conditions like anaemia and infections early on. The timing of the first test depends on individual health circumstances and it is best decided by your family physician.

How often should I review or retest my CBC test, especially if I've made lifestyle changes or started medication?

The frequency of CBC tests varies depending on individual health conditions and any medication you're taking. Generally, a yearly test during an annual check-up is common. However, if you've made significant lifestyle changes or started new medication, your doctor may recommend more frequent testing.

Are there any emerging technologies or advancements in CBC test that I should be aware of?

In recent years, the CBC test has been improved with automated and digital microscopy which provides quicker and accurate results. Keep in touch with your doctor or lab technician to know about the latest advancements.

What role does genetic testing play in a CBC test, and when might it be recommended alongside traditional testing?

Genetic testing can be valuable in diagnosing certain genetic disorders that may affect blood cell count. It could be recommended alongside a CBC test if initial results are abnormal or if there's a family history of blood disorders.

Can I drink water before a CBC test?

Yes, you can and should drink water before a CBC test as it aids in blood draw. However, avoid drinking excessive amounts as it might dilute your blood sample.

Can CBC detect all cancers?

No, a CBC test cannot detect all cancers. However, it can help identify problems such as anaemia or infection which could be symptoms of certain types of cancer.
