Hematocrit (HCT / PCV) (HM0066)

Description

Packed Cell Volume (PCV), also known as Hematocrit (HCT), measures the percentage of red blood cells in total blood volume. This essential hematology parameter helps in the diagnosis of anemia, dehydration, polycythemia, and blood loss conditions. PCV is routinely included in CBC testing and provides valuable insight into oxygen-carrying capacity and overall blood health for accurate clinical assessment.
