Transfusion therapy (Sickle-cell disease) Transfusion therapy (Sickle-cell disease) Red blood cells (erythrocytes) from donors contain normal hemoglobin (HbA), and transfusion of normal red blood cells into people with sickle cell disease reduces the percentage of red cells in the circulation containing the abnormal hemoglobin (HbS). Although transfusion of donor red blood cells can ameliorate and even prevent complications of sickle cell disease in certain circumstances, transfusion therapy is not universally beneficial in sickle cell disease. There are two main types of transfusion, simple red cell transfusion and exchange transfusion. Involves transfusing red blood cells without removing any of the patient’s blood. Exchange transfusion involves
White blood cell underlying cause, though the cause may not always be found. The complete blood cell count is a blood panel that includes the overall WBC count and various subsets such as the absolute neutrophil count. Reference ranges for blood tests specify the typical counts in healthy people. TLC- (Total leucocyte count): Normal TLC in an adult person is 6000-8000WBC/mm^3 of blood. DLC- (Differential leucocyte count): Number/ (%) of different type of leucocyte in per cubic mm. of blood. White blood cell White blood cells (also called leukocytes or leucocytes and abbreviated as WBCs) are the cells of the immune system that
