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

    A Complete Blood Count (CBC) combined with the Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR) test offers a thorough analysis of blood health. The CBC examines the number, size, and maturity of different blood cells in a set blood volume, making it a key test for diagnosing and monitoring numerous health issues.

    Blood is collected and analysed to assess the counts and physical attributes of red blood cells (RBCs), white blood cells (WBCs), and platelets, along with haemoglobin levels and other parameters.

    The ESR parameter of the test measures how quickly red blood cells settle at the bottom of a test tube over one hour. When inflammation is present, red blood cells tend to clump and settle faster.

    Together, the CBC and ESR tests are essential in identifying inflammatory conditions, autoimmune diseases, anaemia, infections, and some cancers. They provide a comprehensive picture of a patient’s haematological and inflammatory state, supporting the diagnosis and management of various health conditions.

    List of Parameters

    Complete Blood Count (CBC) with ESR Test Parameters

    The CBC with ESR test includes a variety of parameters that provide a comprehensive overview of your blood health and potential inflammatory conditions. Here is a breakdown of each parameter included in the test:

    Red Blood Cells (RBC) Count

    This parameter measures the concentration of red blood cells in your blood. RBCs are responsible for carrying oxygen.

    Haemoglobin (Hb)

    This parameter measures the Hb concentration in the red blood cells in the blood.

    Haematocrit (HCT)/ Packed Cell Volume (PCV)

    This parameter represents the percentage of blood composed of RBCs.

    Mean Corpuscular Volume (MCV)

    This calculates the average size of your red blood cells.

    Mean Corpuscular Haemoglobin (MCH)

    This parameter assesses the amount of haemoglobin inside a single red blood cell.

    Mean Corpuscular Haemoglobin Concentration (MCHC)

    This parameter measures the volume of haemoglobin in a specific amount of red blood cells.

    Red Cell Distribution Width (RDW) CV

    Reflects the variation in the size of your red blood cells.

    Mentzer Index

    A ratio is used to differentiate between iron deficiency anaemia and thalassemia.

    Sehgal Index

    Another index used to assess and differentiate types of anaemia.

    Total White Blood Cell Count (TC)

    This parameter assesses the total number of white blood cells. WBCs form the basis of the immune system.

    Differential and Absolute Counts

    The parameter measures the five cells: neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, basophils, and eosinophils in the blood sample.

    Neutrophil Lymphocyte Ratio (NLR)

    This parameter measures the ratio of neutrophils to lymphocytes and is used to assess the immune system and inflammation.

    Platelet Count

    Platelets are essential for blood clotting and the parameter assesses platelet count.

    Platelet Haematocrit (Plateletcrit)

    Indicates the proportion of blood volume that is made up of platelets.

    Mean Platelet Volume (MPV)

    This assesses the average platelet size.

    Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR)

    This parameter measures the settling rate of red blood cells at the bottom of a test tube, indicating the presence of inflammation.

    Complete Blood Count (CBC) with ESR Test Preparation

    Prerequisites

    There are generally no specific prerequisites for a CBC with an ESR test in Mumbai. Fasting is not necessary for conducting the CBC ESR profile test.

    Best Time to Get Tested

    The CBC with ESR test can be taken at any time during the day at your convenience.

    Who Should Take the CBC with ESR Test

    The CBC with ESR test is ideal for individuals of any age who require a thorough health check. It is particularly recommended for those experiencing symptoms like fatigue, general weakness, unexplained bruising, or infection indicators. This test is also commonly used to monitor existing health issues, assess treatment effectiveness, and during routine health check-ups.

    Cautions before taking CBC with ESR Test

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

    Here are some situations where a CBC ESR profile test may be recommended by your treating doctor:

    • Symptom Evaluation: If you’re experiencing unexplained symptoms like fever, unintended weight loss, joint stiffness, night sweats, bruising, bleeding, or fatigue, a CBC with an ESR test can help identify underlying conditions.

    • Inflammatory Condition Diagnosis: The ESR part of the test helps diagnose various inflammatory conditions, including autoimmune diseases, infections, certain cancers, inflammatory arthritis, and blood disorders.

    • Monitoring Chronic Illnesses: For individuals with conditions like cancer or CKD, this test is used to monitor blood parameters regularly, assessing disease progression and treatment efficacy.

    • Evaluating Treatment Response: Treatments such as chemotherapy can affect blood cell counts and immune responses. This test helps assess the effects of these treatments and adjust therapy accordingly.

    • Pregnancy Monitoring: Pregnant individuals may undergo this test to monitor their health and the well-being of their developing baby.

    • Routine Health Assessment: This test is part of routine health checkups and provides valuable insights into your overall health.
