Reticulocyte Count Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Reticulocyte Count = Reticulocytes*(Hematocrit(Patient)/Hematocrit(Normal))
Rect = %R*(HctP/HctN)
This formula uses 4 Variables
Variables Used
Reticulocyte Count - Reticulocyte Count is a part of the complete blood count and the measurement depends on the quantity and size of the red blood cells.
Reticulocytes - Reticulocytes define the percentage of reticulocytes in RBC(red blood cells).
Hematocrit(Patient) - Hematocrit(Patient) test which measures the percentage of RBCs in the blood.
Hematocrit(Normal) - Hematocrit(Normal) value ranges between 37-52% part of the blood.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Reticulocytes: 1.5 --> No Conversion Required
Hematocrit(Patient): 40 --> No Conversion Required
Hematocrit(Normal): 45 --> No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
Rect = %R*(HctP/HctN) --> 1.5*(40/45)
Evaluating ... ...
Rect = 1.33333333333333
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
1.33333333333333 --> No Conversion Required
FINAL ANSWER
1.33333333333333 1.333333 <-- Reticulocyte Count
(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

3 Reticulocyte Count Calculators

Reticulocyte Count
​ Go Reticulocyte Count = Reticulocytes*(Hematocrit(Patient)/Hematocrit(Normal))
Absolute Reticulocyte Count
​ Go Absolute Reticulocyte Count = (Reticulocytes*Hematocrit)/Normal Hematocrit
Reticulocyte
​ Go Reticulocytes = (Absolute Reticulocyte Count*100)/RBC Count

Reticulocyte Count Formula

Reticulocyte Count = Reticulocytes*(Hematocrit(Patient)/Hematocrit(Normal))
Rect = %R*(HctP/HctN)

What is the clinical significance of Reticulocyte Count?

This test is done to check whether the anemia is caused by severe loss of RBCs or less production of RBCs.

How to Calculate Reticulocyte Count?

Reticulocyte Count calculator uses Reticulocyte Count = Reticulocytes*(Hematocrit(Patient)/Hematocrit(Normal)) to calculate the Reticulocyte Count, Reticulocyte Count is also known as corrected Reticulocyte count as the Reticulocyte% is corrected with respect to the hematocrit of the patient. Reticulocyte Count is denoted by Rect symbol.

How to calculate Reticulocyte Count using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Reticulocyte Count, enter Reticulocytes (%R), Hematocrit(Patient) (HctP) & Hematocrit(Normal) (HctN) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Reticulocyte Count calculation can be explained with given input values -> 1.333333 = 1.5*(40/45).

FAQ

What is Reticulocyte Count?
Reticulocyte Count is also known as corrected Reticulocyte count as the Reticulocyte% is corrected with respect to the hematocrit of the patient and is represented as Rect = %R*(HctP/HctN) or Reticulocyte Count = Reticulocytes*(Hematocrit(Patient)/Hematocrit(Normal)). Reticulocytes define the percentage of reticulocytes in RBC(red blood cells), Hematocrit(Patient) test which measures the percentage of RBCs in the blood & Hematocrit(Normal) value ranges between 37-52% part of the blood.
How to calculate Reticulocyte Count?
Reticulocyte Count is also known as corrected Reticulocyte count as the Reticulocyte% is corrected with respect to the hematocrit of the patient is calculated using Reticulocyte Count = Reticulocytes*(Hematocrit(Patient)/Hematocrit(Normal)). To calculate Reticulocyte Count, you need Reticulocytes (%R), Hematocrit(Patient) (HctP) & Hematocrit(Normal) (HctN). With our tool, you need to enter the respective value for Reticulocytes, Hematocrit(Patient) & Hematocrit(Normal) and hit the calculate button.
