Lab values Flashcards
What are the norm values for WBC’s and what is safe for exercise
Norm: 5-10
4.3 - 10.8 ok for exercise
What are the WBC levels for leukocytosis, leukopenia and neutropenia
Leukocytosis > 11 leukopenia < 4 Neutropenia < 1.5 = moderate < .5 = severe possibly follow neutropenia guidelines
What are the norm values for platelets and what is safe for exercise
Norm: 140-400
> 200 ok for exercise
What are the platelet values for thrombocytosis and thrombocytopenia and indications
Thrombocytosis: > 450, can lead to venous thromboembolism
Thrombocytopenia: < 150, severe if less than 20, fall risk
What are the norm values for hemoglobin and what is safe for exercise
Males: 14-17.4
Females: 12-16
> 7 ok for exercise
What are the low (anemia) and high (polycythemia) hemoglobin values and what are the indications
low critical = 5-7, can lead to heart failure or death
High critical = > 20 can clog capillaries
What are the normal lab values for hematocrit
Males: 42-52%
Females: 37-47%
What are the critical low and high values for hematocrit and the indications
Low: <15-20%, cardiac failure or death
High: >60%, spontaneous blood clotting
What are the norm values for glucose
Reference: 70-100
Fasting: 90-130
What are the low and high values for glucose and what are the indications
High: >200, decreased activity tolerance
Low: <70, may not tolerate exercise until level is increased
What are the values for HbA1C and what do they indicate
<5.7 = norm 5.7-6.4 = prediabetes >6.5 = diabetes
Describe the various INR values and what treatment is indicated
> 6 = bed rest
5 = no exercise
4-5 = light exercise
< 4 = resistive exercise
What are the PH value ranges for blood
Norm = 7.35-7.45 Acidosis = < 7.35 Alkalosis = > 7.45
