• Hematocrit: HCT is the proportion by volume of the blood that consists of RBCs
• Mean Corpuscular Hemoglobin MCH
o MCH is the amount of Hgb in RBCs
o 27-34 pg

o Hyperchromic anemia
• Mean Corpuscular Volume MCV
o Size of average RBC, able to categorize anemia based on size
o Microcytic Anemia <80 (80-100 fl)
▪ Fe deficiency
▪ Thalassemia
▪ Anemia of Chronic Disease (ACD) - occasionally
o Normocytic < 80-100
▪ Acute blood loss
▪ ACD – including renal failure
o Macrocytic Anemia

• Types: Genotype (alpha/beta); phenotype (minor, intermedia or major)
• Labs
o RDW normal
o Retic count increased
o Ferritin normal
o High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)/
Hgb electrophoresis – diagnostic standard
o Globin gen – diagnostic confirmation
o Pre-conception and pre-natal testing and counseling
▪ Non-anemia diff dx
• Hypothyroidism
• Pregnancy
• Uterine fibroids
o Ferritin
▪ Iron stores
▪ Earliest lab abnormality
▪ Most accurate test to diagnose IDA
