Mean Corpuscular Volume

Average corpuscular volume, or average cell volume (MCV), is a measure of the average volume of a red blood cell (or red blood cell). The measurement is achieved by multiplying a volume of blood by the proportion of blood that is cellular (hematocrit) and dividing this product by the number of erythrocytes (red blood cells) in that volume. Average corpuscular volume is part of a standard complete blood formula.

In anemic patients, it is the measure of CVD that classifies either microcytic anemia (CVD below the normal range), normocytic anemia (CVD in the normal range) or macrocytic anemia (CVD above the normal range). Normocytic anemia is generally considered to be so because the bone marrow has not yethttps://nursingcare.nursingconference.com/asia-pacific/registration.php responded with a change in cell volume. It occurs occasionally in acute conditions, namely blood loss and hemolysis.

If the CVD was determined by automated equipment, the result can be compared to the RBC morphology on a peripheral blood smear, where a normal RBC is roughly the size of a normal lymphocyte nucleus. Any deviation would generally be indicative of defective equipment or a technician error, although there are certain conditions that arise with high CVD without megaloblastic cells.
