Abstract:
Background:Reference values are very important for the clinical decisions in laboratory diagnosis and clinical management of patients.
Method:A total of 340 adults (apparently healthy individuals) between 18 to 70 years resident in the Ulaanbaatar city were randomly selected and enrolled in this survey. 340 adults made up of 170 males, 170 females were assessed by a clinician to be healthy. About 5 ml of blood was collected with EDTA test tube and analyzed using automated analyser to enumerate the hematological parameters (red blood cell, white blood cell, hemoglobin and haematocrit). Reference values were determined at 2.5th and 97.5th percentiles.
Results:Reference values estabilished include: red blood cell 4.69-6.04×1012/L, white blood cell 3.98-9.11×109/L, haemoglobin 145-176 g/L, haematocrit 42.6-52.9% for males and red blood cell 4.10-5.20×1012/L, white blood cell 3.50-9.08×109/L, haemoglobin 121.8-148.2 g/L, haematocrit 36-44.7% for females.
Conclusion:We were determined mean and reference range of haematological parameters (red blood cell, white blood cell, haemoglobin, haemotocrit) which are important for assessing the nutritional status of adults according to the international standard methodology. The international reference range shows that white blood cells counts do not indicate gender and our data (р=0.0964 are statistically insignificant) also offers no significant difference was found between samples for male and female subjects.
