Ɔmɔs rɛd sɛl dɛn de na yu blɔd? Lɛ wi lan bɔt di tɛst we dɛn kin du fɔ tɛst di ɛmatokrit!

yu don yehri dokta se, "Let's do a blood test" we yu go dokta? Wan simpul bɔt rili impɔtant blɔd tɛst we dɛn kin du bɔku tɛm na in dɛn kɔl di ɛmatokrit. Sɔntɛnde, dɛn kin rayt am bak as `(Hct)` na yu ripɔt. Fɔ tɔk am simpul wan, dis de sho di pasɛnt we di rɛd blɔd sɛl dɛn de na yu blɔd. wi bכdi na rεd bכdi sεl dεm, wayt bכdi sεl dεm, pletlεt dεm, εn wan wata pat we dεn kכl `(plasma).

Bɔku tɛm, dɛn kin du dis ɛmatokrit tɛst as pat pan wan big blɔd tɛst we dɛn kɔl kɔmplit blɔd kɔnt ɔ CBC. Yu kin nid dis tɛst pan dɛn tin ya:

• Insay rutin blɔd tɛst we dɛn kin du ɛvri ia, dat na, as pat pan yu ful chɛk-ap.
• If yu gɛt sayn fɔ sik we de afɛkt yu rɛd blɔd sɛl. Imajin if yu kin fil taya ɛn wik ɔltɛm.
• If yu gɛt wan sik we gɛt fɔ du wit blɔd, yu dɔktɔ go want fɔ wach yu rɛd blɔd sɛl ɔltɛm.

Lɛ wi si aw fɔ du dis tɛst?

Dis na rili simpul tin. Fɔ big pɔsin, yu kin tek smɔl blɔd frɔm wan vein we de na yu an. Fɔ smɔl pikin, lɛk we i ol sɔm mɔnt, yu kin tek smɔl blɔd na di il in fut. Dɔn dɛn kin gɛda di blɔd insay wan spɛshal tiub, ɔ sɔntɛm sɔm tiub dɛn, we dɛn mek fɔ gɛda blɔd.

Dɔn dɛn kin sɛn dis blɔd sɛmpul na di lɛb. Na de, wan spɛshal mashin kin spin di blɔd fast fast, ɛn i kin sheb di difrɛn pat dɛn pan am. Jɔs lɛk we dɛn de skim milk. Dɔn, di mashin insɛf kin kɔl di rayt pasɛnt pan di rɛd blɔd sɛl dɛn.

Yu nid fɔ du ɛni spɛshal tin bifo di tɛst?

Na sɔm gud nyuz fɔ yu! Yu nɔ nid fɔ du ɛni spɛshal tin fɔ rɛdi fɔ dis ɛmatokrit tɛst. Yu kin it ɛn drink nɔmal wan ɛn tek ɛni mɛrɛsin we yu de tek lɛk aw yu kin tek. If yu dɔktɔ tɛl yu ɔda tin, yu fɔ kɔntinyu fɔ du yu wok ɛvride lɛk aw yu kin du.

Bɔt, na smɔl tin fɔ mɛmba: If yu gɛt smɔl fred fɔ nidul, we min se yu kin fred we dɛn tɛl yu fɔ pul blɔd, tɛl di nɔs ɔ di mɛdikal wokman dɛn bifo tɛm. Dɔn dɛn go tich yu difrɛn we dɛn fɔ rilaks ɛn ridyus yu fred. Dɛn kin tɔk to yu ɔ tɛl yu fɔ slo, lɛk fɔ blo sloslo.

Wetin kin apin we yu gɛt blɔd? Na sɔntin we wi fɔ fred?

Di blɔd we dɛn kin pul kin tek sɔm minit nɔmɔ. Na wan kwik prɔses. Na dis na wetin kin apin:

• Fɔs, di pɔsin we de tek di blɔd (dis kin bi nɔs ɔ mɛdikal lɛbɔraytri tɛknishian) go fɛn gud vein na yu an (bɔku tɛm na di insay pat na yu ɛlb).
• Dɔn, na yu ɔpa an, dat na yu an, dɛn kin put rɔba band, we wi kin kɔl bak ``tɔnikɛt''. Dis na fɔ mek di vein big smɔl ɛn mek i izi fɔ pul blɔd.
• Dɔn, dɛn kin klin di skin usay dɛn go put di nidul fayn fayn wan wit sɔntin lɛk rɔm. Dɛn kin du dis fɔ mek di smɔl smɔl smɔl smɔl smɔl smɔl smɔl smɔl smɔl smɔl smɔl smɔl smɔl smɔl smɔl smɔl smɔl smɔl smɔl smɔl smɔl smɔl smɔl smɔl smɔl smɔl smɔl smɔl smɔl smɔl smɔl smɔl smɔl smɔl smɔl smɔl smɔl smɔl smɔl smɔl smɔl smɔl smɔl smɔl smɔl smɔl smɔl smɔl smɔl.

• Di blɔd we de kam tru di nidul, dɛn kin gɛda am na di spɛshal tiub ɔ sirinj we wi bin dɔn tɔk bɔt.
• We dɛn dɔn tek di blɔd we dɛn nid, dɛn kin pul di nidul ɛn di rɔba band, put smɔl plasta ɔ kɔtɔn wul oba di say we dɛn pul di blɔd, ɛn dɛn kin put bandej pan am.

Yu go ebul fɔ go na os insay shɔt tɛm. Bifo yu go, i fayn fɔ aks ustɛm yu go gɛt yu hematocrit `(Hct)` ripɔt. Bɔku tɛm, dɛn kin gɛt di ripɔt insay wan ɔ tu dez, ɛn sɔntɛnde dɛn kin gɛt sɔm dez.

Dis kin mek wi gɛt ɛni bad bad tin we kin apin to pɔsin?

Bɔrku pipul nɔr kin fil ɛni diskɔmfɔt afta dɛn dɔn gi blɔd ɛn dɛn kin fil fayn. Bɔt sɔm pipul dɛn kin fil smɔl we dɛn pul di blɔd ɔ dɛn kin fil lɛk se dɛn nɔ gɛt bɛtɛ ed . If yu fil dis kayn we, na nɔmal tin, nɔ wɔri. Bɔt, mek shɔ se yu tɛl di pɔsin we de pul yu blɔd aw yu de fil. Dɔn dɛn go tɛl yu fɔ ledɔm fɔ sɔm tɛm, gi yu sɔm wata fɔ drink, ɔ ɛp yu te yu fil fayn. Di say we dɛn pul di blɔd kin tɔn blu smɔl, bɔt dis go dɔn fɔ insɛf insay sɔm dez.

Ustɛm yu nid fɔ tɔk to di dɔktɔ?

If yu nɔ ɔndastand wetin de na yu ripɔt, ɔ if yu gɛt ɛni kwɛstyɔn ɔ wɔri bɔt yu ɛmatokrit, mek shɔ se yu tɔk to yu dɔktɔ . Nɔ shem ɔ fred. Mɛmba se, ɛmatokrit we pas di nɔmal smɔl nɔ kin min sɔntin we siriɔs ɔltɛm. Yu dɔktɔ go luk yu hematocrit, yu ɔda tɛst rizɔlt, yu simptom dɛm, ɛn yu mɛdikal histri fɔ no if ɛnitin de we nɔ rayt. I go ɛksplen wetin dɛn valyu dɛn de min fɔ yu wɛlbɔdi, wetin fɔ du nɛks if yu ɛmatokriyt smɔl ɔ bɔku, ɛn if yu nid ɛni tritmɛnt.

Yu dɔktɔ kin dɔn ɔda dis tɛst bikɔs yu gɛt simptom dɛm fɔ wan kɔndishɔn we de afɛkt yu ɛmatokrit lɛvɛl (e.g., taya, paleness). If na so, e fayn fɔ tɛl yu dɔktɔ if yu sik de wɔs.

Wetin na di difrɛns bitwin Ɛmatokrit ɛn Ɛmoglobin?

Dis na kwɛstyɔn bak we bɔku pipul dɛn kin aks, ɛn sɔntɛnde dɛn kin kɔnfyus. Pan ɔl we dɛn ɔl tu gɛt sɔntin fɔ du wit di rɛd blɔd sɛl dɛn, dɛn de mɛzhɔ tu difrɛn tin dɛn.

Fɔ tɔk am simpul wan:

• di εmatokrit tεst de mכsu us pasεnsh כn pan yu tכtal bכdi vכlyum na rεd bכdi sεl dεm (i lεk di ‘dεnsiti’ fכ rεd bכdi sεl dεm na yu bכdi).
• di hεmoglobin tεst de mכsu di כmכnt (bכku tεm insay gram) fכ wan protin we dεn kכl εmoglobin insay yu rεd bכdi sεl dεm.

Dis ɛmoglobin rili impɔtant. Bikɔs, wetin de ɛp di rɛd blɔd sɛl dɛn fɔ kɛr ɔksijɛn go ɔlsay na di bɔdi, ɛn wetin de kech ɔksijɛn, na dis prɔtin we dɛn kɔl ɛmoglobin. So dɛn tu tin ya de tɛl wi impɔtant tin dɛn bɔt wi wɛlbɔdi biznɛs.

Wetin fɔ du if ɔl tu di ɛmatokrit ɛn ɛmoglobin nɔ bɔku?

Sɔntɛnde, yu blɔd tɛst kin sho se di ɛmatokriyt nɔ bɔku ɛn di ɛmoglobin nɔ bɔku. Tri men rizin dɛn de fɔ dis:

• Yu de blɔd : Dis kin bi frɔm injuri ɔ insay mɛdikal kɔndishɔn (e.g. bɛlɛ ɔlsa, intestinal blɔd).
• Yu bon mכro nכ de mek inof rεd bכdi sεl dεm : Di bon mכro na wi bכdi sεl fכktri. If prɔblɛm de wit am, di rɛd blɔd sɛl dɛn we dɛn de mek kin stɔp.
• yu rεd bכdi sεl dεm de day (dεstrukt) fכs pas nכmal : Rεd bכdi sεl dεm gεt nכmal layfspan. If dɛn dɔn pwɛl dɛn bifo dat, dat kin mek bak dɛn valyu dɛn ya go dɔŋ.

If yu gɛt kɔndishɔn lɛk dis, we min se ɔl tu yu ɛmatokrit `(Hct)` ɛn ɛmoglobin `(Hb)` smɔl, yu dɔktɔ go no di rayt tin ɛn disayd us tritmɛnt yu nid.

Fɔ dɔn, di tin dɛn we impɔtant pas ɔl we yu nid fɔ mɛmba!

I nɔmal fɔ fil smɔl wɔri ɔ wɔri if yu hematocrit `(Hct)` valyu na yu blɔd tɛst ripɔt ay ɔ smɔl pas di nɔmal. Bɔt, i impɔtant fɔ ɔndastand se bɔku rizin dɛn de we mek dis kin apin . Sɔmtɛm, dɛn chenj ya kin bi sayn fɔ se yu gɛt siriɔs sik. Bɔt bɔrku tɛm, dɛn kin bi bikɔs ɔf di tin dɛm wae nɔr kin siriɔs, ɔr ivin chenj na wi it ɛn layf.

So, nɔ tink wantɛm wantɛm se na di wɔs tin we yu si di ripɔt. Nɔ panik. Di tin we impɔtant pas ɔl na fɔ tɔk to yu dɔktɔ ɛn ɔndastand gud gud wan wetin dɛn valyu ya min fɔ yu wɛlbɔdi .
