Corpuscular media hemoglobin (HCM) is one of the parameters of the blood test that measures the size and coloration of hemoglobin in the blood cell, including the number of (globular hemoglobin medium)
CHM was requested, as well as CMV in a blood formula to identify the type of anemia of the person, whether hyperchromic, normochroma or hypochroma.
In this way, the possible changes arising from this review are
Depending on the values, there are about 33 picograms in adults, indicating hyperchomic anemia, thyroid disorders or alcoholism.
The causes of high CHM are due to increased size of red blood cells that are normal, leading to the onset of megaloblastic anemia caused by a lack of vitamin B12 and folic acid.
When values are found due to 26 picograms in adults, this indicates hypochrome anemia that could be caused by iron deficiency anemia, lack of hierarchy, and thalassemia, which is a type of genetic anemia.
When HCM is low, this indicates that red blood cells are smaller than normal and that small cells themselves, the average value of hemoglobin is low.
Normal values of hemoglobin in corpuscular media (CHM) in red blood cell picograms are:
Corpuscular haemoglobin concentration (CHCM) values range from 32 to 36%.
These values indicate the coloration of the blood cell, because when the values are low, the center of the cell remains bleached and when the values increase, the cell remains darker than normal.
The types of anemia are very varied and knowing the type of person you have is important to identify its cause and how to perform the best treatment, in the case of anemia due to lack of hierarchy, simply take hierarchy supplements and eat richer foods to cure it. However, when the person has thalassemia, which is another type of anemia, blood transfusions may even be necessary because they know the types of anemia, their symptoms, and their treatment.
