Hemogram bize neler söyler?

En sık istenilen kan testi tam kan sayımıdır. Bu test hemoglobin,lökosit, trombosit sayılarını ve ayrıntılı olarak eritrosit parametrelerini içerir. Otomotik kan sayım cihazlarının verdiği sonuçlar artıklökosit alt gruplarının yüzdeleri ve sayıları konusunda da bilgi vermektedir. Kan sayımı; anemi, hematolojik kanserler, enfeksiyonlar,akut kanamalar, alerjik hastalıklar ve immün yetmezliklerin tanısıiçin gerekli bir testtir. Ayrıca bazı ilaçların yan etkilerinin izlemiiçin de gereklidir. Bir çocuk hekiminin hastasını değerlendirmesigenelde tam kan sayımı okumasını ve yorumlamasını da gerektirir.Bu testin nitelikli olarak değerlendirilmesi hasta ve normal çocukizleminde önemlidir. Bu yazıda hemogram değerlendirmesindeönemli noktalara değinilerek normal ve sorunlu durumların ayrılabilmesi için ipuçları paylaşılmıştır.

What does a hemogram say to us?

The most commonly performed blood test is complete blood cell count. This test includes hemoglobin, white blood cell count, platelet count, and detailed red blood cell indices. Automated complete blood count also give information for “differential” which gives information about percentages and absolute numbers of different subgroups of white blood cells. This test is necessary in diagnosing anemia, hematological cancers, infections, acute hemorrhagic states, allergies, and immunodeficiencies. Also it is used for monitoring side effects of certain drugs. A pediatrician is frequently challenged for evaluating complete blood count as a part patient’s assessment. An enhanced and complete understanding of this laboratory test is essential for providing quality care of sick and normal children. Here in this paper, we want to share key laboratory interpretation strategies for complete blood count and some clues for differentiating normal from deviations and true problems.
