Question

Write your references with their edition number

Answer 1

The normal values for hemoglobin, hematocrit, white blood cell (WBC) count, red blood cell (RBC) count, and platelet levels can vary slightly based on the laboratory and population. However, standard reference ranges based on medical literature can be summarized as follows:

Normal Blood Values:

Hemoglobin (g/dL):

• Men: 13.8 to 17.2 g/dL
• Women: 12.1 to 15.1 g/dL
• Children: Varies by age, typically around 11 to 16 g/dL

Hematocrit (%):

• Men: 40.7% to 50.3%
• Women: 36.1% to 44.3%
• Children: Varies by age, normally around 32% to 44%

White Blood Cell (WBC) Count (cells/mcL):

• Adults: 4,500 to 11,000 cells/mcL
• Children: 5,000 to 15,000 cells/mcL (varies significantly depending on age)

Red Blood Cell (RBC) Count (million cells/mcL):

• Men: 4.7 to 6.1 million cells/mcL
• Women: 4.2 to 5.4 million cells/mcL
• Children: Varies by age, typically around 4.1 to 5.5 million cells/mcL

Platelet Count (cells/mcL):

• Adults: 150,000 to 450,000 cells/mcL
• Children: Similar or slightly lower values, typically around 150,000 to 400,000 cells/mcL
