Anemia Treatment

Diagnosis

Anemia, usually the blood formula. Red blood cells and hemoglobin level automatic measured reports the number of multiple elements, the size of red blood cells, flow cytometry, which is the cause of anemia, as an important tool. Blood smear under the microscope may be useful and sometimes necessary to world regions where automated analysis difficult.

The modern measurement of counter, four parameters (add, count, hemoglobin concentration in the cells and higher), others (hematocrit haematocrit, MTH and MCHC) is calculated based on the age and sex of the value that is set. Some believe that decreasing slightly from a direct measurement of haematocrit.

Reticulocytes and anaemia is increasingly the main health centres in the United States and other rich countries in the past, in part because some automatic article now is your chance to add a "kinetic" reticulocytes count is the number of the approach. The new production of red cells, reticulocytes marrow of quantitative indicators. Reticulocyte production index is done, and to what extent high reticulocyte response rate is calculated. If the anemia is important, even "normal" reticulocyte count is really a reflection of the lack of response.

If the number of available automatically, manually run the counter after special staining blood reticulocytes video. Manual evaluation of the bone marrow transplant can be assessed qualitatively, number and a morphological looked under the microscope as a youth. The newly created, usually more red blood cells and polychromasia. Although the clear and substantial evaluation of erythropoiesis can determine the source of the possibility to compensate for the losses, and if the ratio of the bone marrow.

The reason is not clear, doctors, using other tests: ferritin, serum iron, transferrin, RBC folate serum vitamin B12 substitute, hemoglobin, liver function (serum creatinine, for example) electrophoresis testing quality.

If the diagnosis is not always easy, research, direct examination of bone marrow, red blood cell precursors.
