The three different red blood cell indices include,
The percentage of cells in the liquid is known as the “hematocrit (HCT),” it is also known as packed cell volume (PCV) in the blood. The decreased hematocrit value indicates that the blood cell count is decreased. White blood cells (WBCs) are a type of red blood cells.
MCV (Mean corpuscular volume) = %hematocrit (HCT) × 10/ Red blood cell (RBC) count (millions/mm3)
MCH indicates the average weight of hemoglobin in each RBC molecule.
MCH = Hemoglobin / RBC count
MCHC indicates the average weight of hemoglobin compared to the cell size
MCHC = Hemoglobin / haematocrit
Red cell distribution width refers to the degree of variation in red blood cells. The reference range is, 9 to 14.5
Thus, as per the given information,
MCV = (36 × 10) / 4.79 = 75.15 fL
The MCV is within the normal range of 60 to 77, so the cells are normocytic.
MCH = (12.5/100 mL) / 4.79*10^6 = 26 pg
The normal range of MCH is, 25 to 33 pg. So, the hemoglobin weight is less than the normal
MCHC = (12.5/100 mL) / 36.0% = 34.7%

Case Study : A 70-yr-old male, who had been getting progressively more tired and lethargic the past few months, sought medical advice. The patient appeared thin with noticeable pallor of the nail beds and mucus membranes. A CBC revealed his hemoglobin to be 9.1 g/dL and his hematocrit was 30.0%. He was placed on iron supplementation and told to return for follow-up blood work in six weeks. Six weeks later his hematocrit had dropped to 25.7% (see CBC below). CBC...
Directions: Please read the directions below carefully. I have left the document in WORD format so that it’s easier for you to do your assignment. You will have to take the pertinent information in the document and organize it into a SOAP note. Use the case to develop the Subjective, Objective, Assessment, and Plan sections of the SOAP. You will need to take the information received from the patient interview and the information obtained from the patient chart to write...
