Are you able to recognize and identify the various formed elements? You will need to do this is a systematic manner, scanning along the image. The standard method is to use a grid, but this is not possible with this resource. Try constructing a simple table with each leukocyte type and then making a mark for each cell type you identify. Attempt to classify at least 50 and perhaps as many as 100 different cells. Based on the percentage of cells that you count, do the numbers represent a normal blood smear or does something appear to be abnormal?
I will make your life a bit easier and not make you count four additional grids. So let's assume this
was a random, relatively uniform sample and arbitrarily assign the other four squares to the exact
same number of red blood cells.
What is the Total red blood cell count? Calculate it as
(#RBC you counted *5)*10,000
Is you answer normal?

I want to do a manual white blood cell differential count on this photo. I just need help with counting how many of each type of WBC there are (example: Lymphocyes-15, Segmented Neutrophils-12, monocytes-7, basophils-3, etc.) **** please note the smudged cells don't need to be counted! Just skip those pls

- Your patient is an 85-year-old man with congestive heart failure (CHF). BP = 145/87. He has been very ill and hasn't been eating. A blood test shows that he has hypoproteinemia (low levels of protein in the blood). Would an intravenous (IV) infusion of albumin be an appropriate treatment? Why or why not? Yes, because it would help with blood clotting. No, because it would help with blood clotting. Yes, because it would lead to an increase in blood volume. No, because it would lead to an increase in blood volume. Yes, because it would decrease his blood pressure. No, because it would decrease his blood pressure.
