Calculate the absolute neutrophil count (ANC)for the following: WBC count of 5000 mm³; neutrophils (segs)of 10%; and nonsegmented neutrophils (bands)of 12%.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Determine the total percentage of neutrophils ("polys," or "segs," and "bands").Multiply white blood cell (WBC)count by percentage of neutrophils.
WBC = 1000/mm³,neutrophils = 7%,and nonsegmented neutrophils (bands)= 7%
Step 1: 10% + 12% = 22%
Step 2: 0.22 × 5000 = 1100/mm³ ANC
