    What is a Complete Blood Count (CBC) with ESR Test?

    A Complete Blood Count (CBC) with an Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR) test is a detailed blood examination designed to evaluate multiple aspects of blood health. The CBC quantifies and assesses the size, maturity, and volume of different blood cells within a specific blood sample. This test is crucial for diagnosing and managing a wide range of health conditions, making it a staple in routine medical assessments.

    In this test, a blood sample is drawn and analysed to measure the numbers and properties of red blood cells (RBCs), white blood cells (WBCs), and platelets. It also gauges haemoglobin levels and other related parameters.

    The ESR component measures the rate at which red blood cells settle at the bottom of a test tube over an hour. Inflammatory conditions in the body cause these cells to clump and settle faster.

    Together, the CBC and ESR tests are instrumental in identifying conditions such as anaemia, inflammation, infections, autoimmune disorders, and certain cancers. The combination offers a thorough evaluation of a patient’s haematological and inflammatory health, aiding in the diagnosis and monitoring of various medical conditions.

    Complete Blood Count (CBC) with ESR Test Parameters

    The CBC with ESR test provides a comprehensive analysis of blood health by measuring various parameters. Here’s an overview of each parameter included:

    Red Blood Cells (RBC) Count : RBCs are involved in oxygen transport. The parameter assesses the level of RBCs

    Haemoglobin (Hb) : Hb is the oxygen-carrying substance in the blood. This parameter measures Hb levels and the oxygen-carrying capacity of the blood.

    Haematocrit (HCT) / Packed Cell Volume (PCV) : Indicates the proportion of blood volume that is composed of red blood cells.

    Mean Corpuscular Volume (MCV) : This parameter measures the mean size of red blood cells.

    Mean Corpuscular Haemoglobin (MCH) : This parameter shows the mean haemoglobin concentration present in a single red blood cell.

    Mean Corpuscular Haemoglobin Concentration (MCHC) : Represents the haemoglobin concentration in a given volume of red blood cells.

    Red Cell Distribution Width (RDW) CV : Shows the variability in the size of red blood cells.

    Mentzer Index : A ratio used to differentiate between iron deficiency anaemia and thalassemia.

    Sehgal Index : This parameter is for assessing different types of anaemia.

    Total White Blood Cell Count (TC) : Counts the total number of white blood cells, which play a crucial role in immune response.

    Differential and Absolute Counts : Measures the proportions and exact numbers of the five types of white blood cells: neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, basophils, and eosinophils.

    Neutrophil Lymphocyte Ratio (NLR) : The ratio of neutrophils to lymphocytes, used to assess the immune system and inflammation.

    Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR) : Measures the rate at which red blood cells settle, indicating the presence of inflammation.

    Platelet Count : Evaluates the number of platelets, necessary for blood clotting.

    Platelet Haematocrit (Plateletcrit) : Reflects the proportion of blood volume made up of platelets.

    Mean Platelet Volume (MPV) : This parameter is for measuring the average size of platelets in blood.

    • Symptom Investigation: If you have unexplained symptoms such as fever, unintended weight loss, joint stiffness, night sweats, bruising, bleeding, or fatigue, this test can help identify possible underlying health issues.

    • Inflammatory Condition Diagnosis: The ESR component is crucial for diagnosing various inflammatory conditions, including inflammatory arthritis, autoimmune diseases, infections, certain cancers, and illnesses related to blood.

    • Monitoring Chronic Conditions: For individuals with conditions like cancer or chronic kidney disease (CKD), this test is useful for regularly monitoring blood parameters to track disease progression or treatment effectiveness.

    • Evaluating Treatment Impact: Treatments like chemotherapy can affect blood cell counts and immune function. Regular CBC ESR tests help evaluate treatment responses and guide adjustments to therapy.
