This seems like a very complex issue. By following the the related link below (Relation Between Red Blood Cell Distribution Width and Inflammatory Biomarkers in a Large Cohort of Unselected Outpatients) more information can be found on this subject.
Elevated RDW (Red Cell Distribution Width) can be caused by various conditions such as anemia, nutritional deficiencies, chronic diseases, or bone marrow disorders. It is used as a marker of red blood cell size variability and can provide information about the underlying condition affecting red blood cells. Further evaluation is usually needed to determine the specific cause of an elevated RDW.
An elevated RDW is a higher than normal red blood cell count. This can be brought on by a number of things, most commonly anemia. Your doctor will be able to best advise you on the appropriate course of action to take to get your red blood cells to a normal level.
Elevated monocytes can be caused by infections, inflammation, or certain medical conditions such as leukemia. Elevated RDW (red blood cell distribution width) can indicate a range of conditions including anemia, nutritional deficiencies, or bone marrow disorders. Further evaluation by a healthcare provider is necessary to determine the specific cause for these abnormalities.
High RDW-SD (Red Cell Distribution Width - Standard Deviation) in a hematology test indicates increased variability in the size of red blood cells. This can suggest the presence of certain conditions, such as anemia, nutritional deficiencies, or bone marrow disorders. Elevated RDW-SD may warrant further investigation to determine the underlying cause and guide appropriate treatment.
There is no specific meaning to rdw in mathematics.
RDW Group was created in 1986.
A RDW (red cell distribution width) of 15.2 is slightly elevated, which could indicate variability in the size of your red blood cells. This may be seen in certain conditions like anemia, nutrient deficiencies, or inflammation. Further evaluation by a healthcare provider is recommended to determine the underlying cause.
