What does the medical abbreviation cbc w diff mean?
Complete blood count with differential. Total leukocyte count gives the total number of white blood cells per microliter of blood. The differential count gives the percentage of the various types of white blood cells like neutrophils, lymphocyts and eosinophils.A CBC is a complete blood count.It contains:RBC - number of red blood cellsMCV - average volume of individual red blood cellsMCHC - average amount of hemoglobin per red blood cellRDW - the average size of the red blood cellHemoglobinHematocritWBC - number of white blood cells.If it is ordered with a differential, then they want the lab to break down the different types of white blood cells, such as neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, eosinophils, as monocytes.Different types of diseases cause a rise in the different types of WBCs, so a differential can often be useful in narrowing down a diagnosis.
What does it mean if your white blood cells and neutrophils are high?
If your white blood cell count is high, this shows an infection, usually bacterial. If your neutrophil count is also high, this shows an acute infection, whereas if your macrophage count were to be high, this would show a chronic infection. An acute infection or inflammation means that it has had a duration of usually less than 2 weeks. A chronic infection lasts longer than 2 weeks. The difference is that the neutrophils are the first responders to inflammation and infection, then come the macrophages. The neutrophils have a shorter lifespan and the macrophages can live for a long time fighting infection. This is how you get the higher count of neutrophils with an acute infection, and the higher macrophages with chronic infection.
