COMPLETE BLOOD COUNT (CBC)

Complete Blood Count (CBC) is a common blood test used to evaluate overall health and detect a variety of medical conditions such as infections, anemia, inflammation, and blood disorders. The test measures different components of blood, including red blood cells (RBCs), white blood cells (WBCs), hemoglobin, hematocrit, and platelets. Red blood cells carry oxygen throughout the body, white blood cells help fight infections, and platelets assist in blood clotting. Doctors often recommend a CBC as part of a routine health check-up or to investigate symptoms like fatigue, fever, weakness, or unexplained bruising. A CBC provides important information about a person’s general health and helps in early diagnosis and monitoring of many diseases.
