Part Description

LP15101-6   Hematocrit
The volume of packed red blood cells in a blood sample. The volume is measured by centrifugation in a tube with graduated markings, or with automated blood cell counters. It is an indicator of erythrocyte status in disease. For example, in anemia the volume is low and in polycythemia it is high. Source: National Library of Medicine, MeSH 2006

Reference Information

Type Source Reference
Mapping Guidance Regenstrief Help Chemistry instruments (in constrast to automated cell counters) report a hematocrit based on an impedence (conductance) measure that take the serum sodium concentration into account. So this is the measure that is reported by most POC, blood gas, and other chemistry instruments that report hematocrit measurements. Mapper’s Guide for the Top 2000 plus LOINC Laboratory Observations
