time required for blood to stop flowing from a tiny puncture wound
bleeding time
time required for venous blood to clot in a test tube
coagulation time
numbers of blood cells, hemoglobin concentration, hematocrit and red cell values
complete blood count (CBC)
speed at which erythrocytes settle out of plasma
erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR)
percentage of erythrocytes in a volume of blood
hematocrit Hct
total amount of hemoglobin in sample of peripheral blood
hemoglobin test
number of platelets per cubic millimeter or microliter of blood
platelet count
test of ability of blood to clot
prothrombin time (PT)
number of erythrocytes per cubic mm or microliter of blood
red blood cell count (RBC)
microscopic examination of a stained blood smear to determine the shape of individual red cells
red blood cell morphology
number of leukocytes per cubic mm or microliter of blood
white blood cell count (WBC)
percentages of different types of leukocytes in the blood
white blood cell differential [count]
separation of blood into component parts and removal of a select portion from the blood
apheresis
whole blood or cells are taken from a donor and infused into a patient
blood transfusion
microscopic examination of a core of bone marrow removed with a needle
bone marrow biopsy
peripheral stem cells from compatible donor are administered to a recipient
hematopoietic stem cell transplantation
bone marrow cells used rather than peripheral stem cell
bone marrow transplantation
