10. Significance of abnormal values of hemoglobin.
What are the normal values (=reference range) for your analyte? What could a high value indicate? (i.e. suggestive of diabetes, kidney failure, etc.) What could a low value indicate? analyte is hemoglobin.
ANSWER :- NORMAL VALUE OF HEMOGLOBIN
The hemoglobin level is expressed as the amount of hemoglobin in grams (gm) per deciliter (dL) of whole blood, a deciliter being 100 milliliters.
The normal ranges for hemoglobin depend on the age and, beginning in adolescence, the gender of the person. The normal ranges are:
All of these values may vary slightly between laboratories. Some laboratories do not differentiate between adult and "after middle age" hemoglobin values. Pregnant females are advised to avoid both high and low hemoglobin levels to avoid increasing risks of stillbirths (high hemoglobin – above the normal range) and premature birth or low-birth-weight baby (low hemoglobin – below the normal range).
A low hemoglobin level is referred to as anemia or low red blood count. A lower than normal number of red blood cells is referred to as anemia and hemoglobin levels reflect this number. There are many reasons (causes) for anemia.
Some of the more common causes of anemia are:
Higher than normal hemoglobin levels can be seen in people living at high altitudes and in people who smoke. Dehydration produces a falsely high hemoglobin measurement that disappears when proper fluid balance is restored.
Some other infrequent causes are high hemoglobin levels are:

Distinguish between abnormal and normal results with the results below and explain each scenario. 1. A 6 year old has a hematocrit of 36%. Is that normal? 2. A 54 year old patient has a WBC count of 13000/mm3. Is it high or low? 3. A 23 year old has a hematocrit of 32% and hemoglobin of 10 g/dl. Are these values high or low? What might this patient’s diagnosis be? 4. Another patient has a platelet count of 142,000/mm3....
What are the normal/abnormal lab values for HDL? If HDL is too low, what are the recommendations?
What are the normal/abnormal lab values for Triglycerides? What is the diet therapy for high triglyceride levels?
If your levels of either of Hemoglobin and Hematocrit are low or high, how can you interpret that? Does it indicate that you are at risk for or may have any conditions or diseases? How can you change your diet or other lifestyle factors to bring these level(s) into the normal range?
