Infant Reference Intervals—Steps Towards Improving the Supportive Data for Result Interpretation
ABSTRACT Aim To fully take advantage of blood test results, comparative data are required. Today, the reference interval is a commonly used concept. This review aims to summarise the current state of reference intervals, focusing on infants. Methods Literature on reference percentiles (birth to 12 months of age) published from January 1950 until ...

Nearly 15 million units of packed red blood cells and whole blood are transfused annually in the United States alone. Until recently, the major risks from blood transfusion were thought to be transmission of viral infections, and overall, blood transfusion was believed by most providers to be safe.

Stress is believed to increase hematocrit. Groups of patients with generalized anxiety disorders and normal volunteers matched on age and sex were compared on resting levels of state anxiety, trait anxiety, depression, pulse rate, blood pressure and hematocrit.

The purpose of this study is to determine experimentally the optimal incident visible wavelength and light detector angle that yields the maximal change in optical density between an arterial or venous Hct of 20% and 40%. A universal monochromator allows incident wave-lengths in 8-nm increments over the visible range to be selected for the incident ...

There is limited evidence that raised hematocrit levels may be associated with insulin resistance, which links cardiovascular disease with NIDDM. The association between hematocrit level at screening and the subsequent development of physician-diagnosed NIDDM during 12.8 years of follow-up was examined in a prospective study of 7,735 middle-aged men ...

The Role of the Hematocrit in Bleeding
Transfusion Medicine Reviews, 1987Low hematocrit is an often neglected cause in the pathogenesis of a prolonged bleeding time in an anemic patient. There has been ample evidence in the literature, indicating a relationship between hematocrit and the bleeding time; and that the transfusion of RBCs may correct the prolonged bleeding time often observed in anemic patients.

The hematocrit (Hct) determines the oxygen carrying capacity of blood, but also increases blood viscosity and thus flow resistance. From this dual role the concept of an optimum Hct for tissue oxygenation has been derived. Viscometric studies using the ratio Hct/blood viscosity at high shear rate showed an optimum Hct of 50-60% for red blood cell (RBC)

Acoustofluidic hematocrit determination
Analytica Chimica Acta, 2018Hematocrit (HCT) measurements of blood from patients, blood donors and athletes are routinely performed on a daily basis. These measurements are often performed in centralized hospital labs by whole blood analyzers, which leads to long time-to-result.

The Hematocrit of Capillary Blood
New England Journal of Medicine, 1955THE measurement of the packed red-cell volume (or hematocrit) of the venous blood has long been recognized as a useful aid in the study of blood in a large number of clinical conditions.
