Question

laboratory reports

Answer 1

rbc - as you stated red blood count

It is the amount of red cells found in a volume of blood, as opposed to plasma, leukocyte , (white blood cells), etc. Basically depending on what the blood service needs it has a count scale to work from

Answer 2

It would be interesting to know the three letter codes to which you are referring.

There would be many of them so I will include a few.

FBE: full blood examination
LFT'S: liver function test
ESR: tests to determine whether you have an infection
RFT's kidney function tests
HIV: is self explanatory
MNC: mononucleosis, which can also be found on liver function tests

That can be a start. You can google these if you wish and of course they will vary from country to country

Answer 3

Well, I'm not sure what exact abbreviations they use in your lab and what you need to know, but the common ones mean (this isn't necessarily what the letters stand for)
WBC - white blood cells
RBC - red blood cells
Plt - platelets
Hb - hemoglobin
Hct - hematocrit (this and hemoglobin basically measure the same thing different ways)
MCV - mean corpuscular volume (for red blood cells)
MCH - mean corpuscular hemoglobin (again, for red cells)
RDW - Red cell distribution width (basically how different in size are your red cells from one another)

Answer 4

RBC - Red blood cells

Low RBC would open you to many diseases. Take more iron supplements.

Answer 5

can a 2 year old boy die from high red blood cells

Answer 6

rbc is not red blood count but it is red blood corpuscles. wbc is white blood corpuscles
