What is the relationship between rapid rate of RBC destruction and jaundice?
When red blood cells are broken down rapidly, the heme component of hemoglobin is metabolized into bilirubin. If the rate of breakdown exceeds the liver's ability to process bilirubin, it can accumulate in the blood and tissues, leading to jaundice, a yellowing of the skin and eyes. This is seen in conditions such as hemolytic anemia or certain liver diseases.
What is the significance of RBC enumeration?
RBC (red blood cell) enumeration is important for diagnosing conditions like anemia, polycythemia, or other blood disorders. It can also provide information about oxygen-carrying capacity and overall health status. Monitoring RBC levels helps in assessing response to treatments and identifying any potential health risks.
