What else can I help you with?
Is there increase in RBC count in COPD and why?
Yes there is an increase in hematocrit and this is due to anoxia
What is the long term effect of athletic training on RBC count?
The more we use our skeletal muscles, the more oxygen they need. This causes an increase in rbc count because rbcs carry the oxygen. If an athlete trains at high altitude, the rbc count will increase even more because the body compensates for the lower oxygen level at high altitude by increasing rbc count even more. This is sometimes referred to as 'packing'.
What is normal red cell count in urine?
The normal RBC count in urine is - 4 RBC/HPF RBC -red blood corpuscle HPF - high power field
What are the other use of rbc?
Platelet count and sperm count
What are the other uses of RBC pipette?
Platelet count and sperm count
What effect does running have on RBC count?
Blood consists of red blood cells (RBCs) and plasma. Plasma, which constitutes for more than half of normal blood, is about 90% water, thus dehydration can cause a relative increase in RBC count (i.e. there is no real increase in the cell count but decrease in the plasma component).
Dengue fever resuls in dip in the rbc count wbc count platelets count hemoglobin?
platelets
What prediction can you make with rbc's and wbc's?
If rbc stands for red blood count and wbc stands for white blood count, then you may be able to predict if someone is becoming anemic.
Why is my blood count high?
It means your body is producing too many red cells and it is only a symptom and not a disease by itself. There are a variety of causes, some of which can be quite serious, including heart, lung, and kidney disease. Polycythemia vera, a blood marrow disorder, is another cause. However, other causes may be benign. For instance, if a person lives at a high altitude, he may develop more RBC's/hemoglobin to better enable him to take in the available oxygen. If a person is dehydrated, it may appear that his RBC count has risen, simply because the ratio of plasma to RBC's has been altered. Males tend to have higher RBC counts than women due to their higher levels of testosterone; males who abuse anabolic steroids and have elevated levels of testosterone will also have much higher RBC counts.Obviously one must determine the cause of an elevated RBC count before treating the underlying condition.http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20071015193713AATBOvB
Is a 5 10 RBC count in urine considered high?
yes
What is the effect of a permanent move from sea level to a high-altitude area have on RBC count?
A permanent move from sea level to a high-altitude area can lead to an increase in red blood cell (RBC) count. This is the body's response to the lower oxygen levels at high altitudes, as having more RBCs helps in delivering oxygen to tissues more efficiently in such environments.
What CBC parameters would be abnormal in a patient who has cancer?
TOTAL WBC COUNT,RBC COUNT,HEMOGLOBIN and platelet count will be decreased in Cancer.
