Methods: A cohort COVID-19 admitted Avicenna military hospital Marrakech during 6 months from April October 2020 was retrospectively analyzed. baseline data laboratory tests, including complete blood count (CBC) coagulation tests. Results: total 218 individ...

OBJECTIVE Measuring immature white blood cell forms ("bands") has been considered clinically unnecessary. We performed this study to determine whether elevated band counts, with normal total white blood cells on admission, were associated with infection or in-hospital death. METHODS We performed a retrospective cohort study including all patients admitted to the Christiana Care Health System ...

Sporadically, hematology analyzers generate grossly erroneous results for one or several parameters of the complete blood count (CBC) because of a characteristic or peculiarity of an individual patient specimen. This article presents three cases of relatively less well-known analytic errors of this sort, falsely elevating white blood cell count and platelet count and decreasing total white bloo...
