Specimen: EDTA Whole Blood
The total RBC count, also known as the red blood cell count, is a measure of the number of red blood cells in a given volume of blood. The normal range for total RBC count can vary depending on factors such as age, sex, and altitude, but generally falls within the following ranges: Adult males: 4.5 to 5.5 million cells/mcL (microliter) Adult females: 4.0 to 5.0 million cells/mcL Children: 3.8 to 5.5 million cells/mcL A low total RBC count may indicate conditions such as anemia, bone marrow failure, or bleeding, while a high total RBC count may indicate conditions such as polycythemia vera or dehydration. However, it's important to note that the total RBC count is just one of several blood tests used to evaluate a person's health and that the interpretation of test results should be done by a qualified medical professional.
