Test Details

The COMPLETE BLOOD COUNT (CBC) test is a common blood test that provides important information about the components of your blood. It measures various elements, including red blood cells (RBCs), white blood cells (WBCs), and platelets, as well as hemoglobin and hematocrit levels. The CBC is a valuable tool for diagnosing a wide range of medical conditions.

Blood Sample: A healthcare provider will collect a blood sample, typically from a vein in your arm, using a needle and a syringe or a specialized blood collection tube.

Laboratory Analysis: The blood sample is sent to a laboratory for analysis. There, automated machines count the number of different blood components and measure their characteristics.

Usually, no specific preparation is required for a CBC. You can eat, drink, and take medications as usual before the test

You may feel a brief pinch or discomfort when the needle is inserted to draw the blood sample. Afterward, there might be some mild bruising or soreness at the site, but this is typically temporary.

Normal CBC results vary depending on age, sex, and individual factors. Typical ranges include:

Red Blood Cells (RBCs): 4.5 to 5.5 million cells per microliter (mcL) for men; 4.0 to 5.0 million mcL for women.

White Blood Cells (WBCs): 4,500 to 11,000 cells/mcL.

Hemoglobin: 13.8 to 17.2 grams per deciliter (g/dL) for men; 12.1 to 15.1 g/dL for women.

Hematocrit: 38.3% to 48.6% for men; 35.5% to 44.9% for women.

Platelets: 150,000 to 450,000 platelets/mcL.

Low RBC Count: Anemia, bleeding, or nutritional deficiencies.

High WBC Count: Infection, inflammation, or leukemia.

Low Platelet Count: Bleeding disorders or certain medications.

Low Hemoglobin and Hematocrit: Anemia or other medical conditions

The COMPLETE BLOOD COUNT (CBC) test is a routine blood test and is generally safe. Risks are minimal and may include:

Mild bruising at the blood sample site.

Rarely, fainting or lightheadedness during or after the blood draw.
