leukocytosis-
inc in wbc count- can be path or physio
physiologic reasons for leukocytosis
extreme temps, muscular activity, preg
patho reasons for leukocytosis
ITALIC I infection T tissue death A allergy L leukemia I inflammation C cancer
leukopenia causes- 4
megaloblastic anemia
bone marrow depression
malig neutropenia or myeloprolieratite sytnromes (leukkemia, polycythemia)
viral infection
to get total neutrophils, add – and –
segs and bands
neutrophils- normal percent in wbc differential
50-70 segs, 3-5 bands,
number is 3000-7000
lymphocyte normal percent in wbc differential
1000 - 3500, 20-40%
monocytes- percent in wbc diff
0-7%, 0-700
eo in wbc diff
0-5%, 0-500
baso in wbc diff
0-1%, 0-100
acute infection you see – shift in neutrophil
left shift- increase in bands
left shift
increase in bands (1-2 lobes)
left shift- lab values
> 20% bands or >80% neutrophil in total wbc count
right shift-
increased mature pmn- less common
cause for left shift- 6
acute infection physical/emotional stimuli toxemia hemorrhage leukemia diabetes
right shift- 4 causes
chronic inflamm
autoimmune dz
megaloblastic anemia
iron defiiceny
neutrophenia- mild, mod, sev
1000 1500 mild
500-1000 mod
>500 sev
