Corrected calcium levels to determine hypercalcemia. by Dana H on Sun Jul 13, 2014 9:09 pm. Hello all, I remember reading either a Beacon forum post or a news article which discussed corrected calcium levels to determine the C in CRAB, hypercalcemia, but can't seem to locate it.

Red blood cells can enter the urine from the vagina in menstruation or from the trauma of bladder catheterization. A high count of red blood cells in the urine can indicate infection, trauma, tumors, or kidney stones. If red blood cells seen under microscopy look distorted, they suggest kidney as the possible source and may arise due to kidney inflammation (glomerulonephritis).
