Since an RBC count is performed as part of a complete blood count (CBC) , results from other components are taken into consideration. A rise or drop in the RBC count must be interpreted in conjunction with other parameters, such as hemoglobin, hematocrit, reticulocyte count, and/or red blood cell indices.his test may also be used to help diagnose and/or monitor a number of diseases that affect the production or lifespan of red blood cells. Red blood cells circulate in the blood and carry oxygen throughout the body.
(February 2009). An episiotomy (/ÉËpiËziËËÉtÉmiË/ or /ÉËpÉsaÉªËÉtÉmiË/), also known as perineotomy, is a surgical incision of the perineum and the posterior vaginal wall generally done by a midwife or obstetrician during second stage of labor to quickly enlarge the opening for the baby to pass through.pisiotomy is done as prophylaxis against soft-tissue tearing which would involve the anal sphincter and rectum. Vaginal tears can occur during childbirth, most often at the vaginal opening as the baby's head passes through, especially if the baby descends quickly.
With an ostomy there is loss of sphincter or control over urination or excretion, so ostomy patients must wear an ostomy bag to collect body waste. The ostomy might be temporary or permanent depending on the gravity of the condition. An ostomate is somebody who has an ostomy. There are three types of ostomy surgeries: colostomy, ileostomy and urostomy. The first two make reference to the part of the intestinal system that is compromised in the procedure. A colostomy relates to the large intestine (colon) while an ileostomy to the small intestine (ileum). When the procedure involves the bladder, it is called a urostomy. An ostomy is performed for different reasons, but it remains as the last resort for intestinal pathologies.
