3018229 - MYELOCYTES/100 LEUKOCYTES IN BLOOD BY MANUAL COUNT

The identification of mature and immature granulocytes, including myelocytes and metamyelocytes, in blood and bone marrow is fundamental to the diagnosis of haematological disorders. A myelocyte is a young cell of the granulocytic series, occurring normally in bone marrow, but not in circulating blood (except when caused by certain diseases). [1]

In the OMOP vocabulary 3018229 is a Standard Concept that represents the measurement MYELOCYTES/100 LEUKOCYTES IN BLOOD BY MANUAL COUNT

The recommended low and high values for each unit associated with 3018229 are below. These are not meant to be normal values. Rather, these are meant to be biologically plausible values. For example, it would be implausible to see a patient with a weight of 0 kg though a person could be 2.5 kg.

Plausible Low Value

0.0

Plausible High Value

100
