Hematocrit blood test shows the percentage of red blood cells (RBC's) in the blood. The test results vary from lab to lab (as all blood tests do). Hematocrit test results can also be 7% between different testing methods.

The general range of normal by age:

  • Newborns: 55%-68%
  • One (1) week of age: 47%-65%
  • One (1) month of age: 37%-49%
  • Three (3) months of age: 30%-36%
  • One (1) year of age: 29%-41%
  • Ten (10) years of age: 36%-40%
  • Adult males: 42%-54%
  • Adult women: 38%-46%
  • Adult pregnant women: about 30% - 34% lower limits and 46% upper limits
  • High Altitude residents: about 45% - 61% in males; 41% - 56% in females

The normal hematocrit for a 1 year old child is between 29 percent and 41 percent. If your child's is under or over, more tests will be performed.

What is a normal hematocrit level for a child?

This is a complicated question, as the hematocrit in children changes rapidly as the child ages, with normals dropping to their potential lowest (average of 35) when the child is around 2-3 months old, and then climbing and stabilizing slowly from there. You'll notice how the "normal" parameters begin to narrow as the child grows older. At birth, the normal range of hematocrit can be anywhere from 42 to 64. After birth up until 1 month of age, the "normal" range is between 31 and 67. Between 1 to 2 months, the normal range is between 28 to 55. Between 2 and 6 months, the normal range is between 28 and 42. Between 6 months to two years, the normal range is 33 to 40. Between 2 to 6 years the normal range is between 34 to 40. Between 6 to 12 years, the normal range is between 35 to 45. For females between ages 12 and 18, the normal range is between 36 to 46. For males between ages 12 and 18, the normal range is between 37 and 49. (These values may be slightly different at various hospitals depending on the equipment used to measure the hematocrit and the established "normal" ranges by the lab resulting the specimens.)

Perfectly normal. For a girl, that height is average. Maybe if you gain 1 or 1 and a half inches, you will be perfect.
