Why pcv increases in dehydration?
In dehydration, the volume of plasma in the blood decreases due to the loss of water, while the number of red blood cells remains relatively constant. This results in a higher concentration of red blood cells per unit volume of blood, leading to an increase in packed cell volume (PCV) or hematocrit. Essentially, dehydration causes the blood to become more viscous and concentrated, which elevates the PCV.

How much increase of hematocrit level per 1 unit pf prbc?
A good rule of thumb is 1 Unit of PRBCs will raise an adult's Hgb by 1 g/dl or their Hct by 2~3%. For pediatrics, a 10 ml/kg transfusion will increase Hgb by 3 g/dl and Hct by 10% These are approximations, of course, and depend on the size of the patient, the exact Hct of the transfused blood, and red blood cell survival after transfusion. In general, a unit of PRBCs is ~300 ml and has a Hct of 70% Ref: "Clinical Anesthesiology," E. Morgan, M. Mikhail, M. Murray. 4th ed.
What is a unit of blood?
Unit of volume for human blood and its components. A unit of whole blood is 450 millilitres. For components of blood, one unit is the amount of that substance that would normally be found in one unit of whole blood.The adult human body contains roughly 12 units of whole blood.0.45 litre = 1 unit of bloodAccording to Canadian Blood Services, a unit of blood is approximately 450 ml. The amount of blood in one person is five litres or 10.5 pints. On average, 4.6 units of blood are required per patient.
How many cc in a unit of packed red blood cells?
It depends. There is no set amount of cc in each unit of blood. The institution I work for handwrites on each of the labels exactly how many cc are in that particular unit. The number is always very random (i.e.219, etc.) There are typically between 250&350cc per unit.
