What This Value Measures
Erythrocytes are the red blood cells that transport oxygen in the blood. Their count per liter of blood is measured.
Elevated Value
An elevated level may indicate fluid deficiency or increased blood production.
Low Value
A decreased level may indicate anemia or blood loss.
Reference ranges are typical guide values for adults and vary depending on the laboratory, measurement method, age and sex — always compare with the range stated on your own report. A value outside the range does not automatically mean an illness, and a value within the range does not rule one out. The trend and overall picture are usually more informative than a single value. The doctor's assessment is always decisive.
