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

    A Complete Blood Count (CBC) and Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR) test is a critical blood test that provides an extensive evaluation of blood components. The CBC counts and measures the size and development of various blood cells within a given blood volume, playing a vital role in diagnosing and tracking a multitude of health conditions.

    This test involves extracting a blood sample for analysis to determine the number and physical characteristics of red blood cells (RBCs), white blood cells (WBCs), and platelets, including haemoglobin levels and other important parameters.

    The ESR test measures the rate at which red blood cells settle at the bottom of a test tube over an hour. Faster sedimentation can indicate inflammation due to the clumping of red blood cells.

    Thus, CBC and ESR tests together provide insights into inflammatory conditions, autoimmune diseases, anaemia, infections, and some cancers. They offer a detailed overview of a patient’s blood health and inflammatory status, aiding in diagnosing and monitoring various medical conditions.

    Complete Blood Count (CBC) with ESR Test Parameters

    The CBC with ESR test offers a thorough assessment of blood health through various parameters. Here’s an outline of each parameter included:

    Red Blood Cells (RBC) Count: Assesses the quantity of red blood cells responsible for oxygen transport.

    Haemoglobin (Hb): Determines the levels of haemoglobin, reflecting the blood’s oxygen-carrying capacity.

    Haematocrit (HCT) / Packed Cell Volume (PCV): Indicates the proportion of blood volume occupied by red blood cells.

    Mean Corpuscular Volume (MCV): Calculates the average size of red blood cells.

    Mean Corpuscular Haemoglobin (MCH): Measures the average haemoglobin content in a single red blood cell.

    Mean Corpuscular Haemoglobin Concentration (MCHC): Represents the concentration of haemoglobin 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: Another index for assessing different types of anaemia.

    Platelet Count: Assesses the quantity 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 stands for the average size of platelets.

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

    Total White Blood Cell Count (TC): Counts the total number of white blood cells crucial for 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 evaluate the immune system and inflammation.

    Complete Blood Count (CBC) with ESR Test Preparation

    Prerequisites

    The CBC with an ESR test in Hyderabad does not require any fasting or any special preparations.

    Best Time to Get Tested

    The CBC with ESR test can be conveniently taken at any time during the day at home.

    Eligibility for CBC with ESR Test

    The CBC ESR test at home is appropriate for individuals across all age groups seeking a comprehensive health evaluation.

    Cautions before taking CBC with ESR Test

    Why Take a Complete Blood Count (CBC) with ESR Test?

    Your treating doctor might recommend a CBC ESR profile test for several reasons which include:

    • Routine Health Check: As part of a regular health checkup, a CBC with an ESR test provides crucial information about your overall health.

    • Pregnancy Monitoring: Pregnant individuals may be recommended to have a CBC with an ESR test to ensure their health and the baby's development are on track.

    • Diagnosis of Symptoms: If you are experiencing unexplained symptoms such as fever, unexpected weight loss, joint stiffness, night sweats, bruising, bleeding, or persistent fatigue, this test can help diagnose potential medical conditions.

    • Diagnosing Inflammatory Conditions: The ESR part of the test is valuable for diagnosing inflammatory conditions such as autoimmune diseases, infections, certain cancers, inflammatory arthritis, and blood disorders.

    • Monitoring Ongoing Diseases: Individuals with chronic conditions like cancer or CKD may need regular CBC with ESR testing to monitor disease progression and treatment efficacy.

    • Assessing Treatment Effects: Treatments like chemotherapy can alter blood cell counts and immune responses. This test helps in assessing the effects of such treatments and adjusting them as necessary.
