White blood cell count

This is the most basic test data.

Excessive white blood cell count:

It means there is inflammatory infection, bacterial/viral infection in the body. This is the most basic judgment. Usually just remember this.

If the white blood cells exceed the standard by a large amount, it means that the body's immune system is actively fighting against the opponent. White blood cells are like soldiers in the body. They need to defeat the invading abnormal foreign enemies. In this way, a lot of white blood cells are needed to defeat them and restore the body to health. Of course more is not better.

Usually, pet hospitals often use antibiotics to treat patients with high white blood cells.

Complex version: acute purulent infection, certain viral infections, leukemia, leukemia-like reaction, diabetic ketoacidosis, severe burns, acute massive bleeding, malignant tumors and certain metal (such as lead, mercury, etc.) poisoning.

Low white blood cell count:

It’s okay to have a slightly low white blood cell count. Generally, no treatment is needed, because poor physical fitness can lead to low white blood cell count...

Complex version: poor physical fitness, chemical factors, bacterial and viral infections, various radiation, congenital factors and others such as leukemia, malignant tumors, etc.

Red blood cell count

Low red blood cell count:

Mostly due to anemia. Of course, bleeding from wounds can also cause this low number.

General physical examination of new puppies, if the food in the pet store and dog farm is not good enough, mild anemia is quite common. Generally speaking, there is no need to worry. Just supplement some nutrition when you get home. At most, just eat [Sheng Xue Bao] for pets~

Hemoglobin

Low hemoglobin:

Generally, puppies or stray dogs are mostly caused by anemia. However, other symptoms such as hepatitis can also cause low hemoglobin.

Platelets

Low platelets:

Affects coagulation ability, which means that once there is a wound, it is more difficult to stop bleeding than ordinary people.

High platelets:

Physiological: For example, it will be slightly higher at certain times of the day. This is normal and does not need to be considered.

Primary cause: thrombocythemia

Secondary causes: recovery period of various diseases

The above are the most basic. Generally speaking, as a shit shovel officer, you only need to have a little understanding of the above~

Of course there are other data in the blood routine, for example:

Neutrophils

Eosinophils

Monocytes

Lymphocytes

These types can be combinedThe white blood cell count can also be used to determine viruses, bacteria, inflammatory infections and other diseases;

Mean corpuscular volume

Mean corpuscular hemoglobin

Mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration

Red blood cell volume distribution width

These can be combined with hemoglobin to determine anemia problems.
