Hemoglobin By Cynmethaemoglobin,edta Whole Blood

The Hemoglobin by Cyanmethemoglobin test is a colorimetric assay that measures the amount of hemoglobin in a blood sample by converting hemoglobin into a stable, measurable form called cyanmethemoglobin. This test is one of the standard methods for hemoglobin quantification due to its accuracy and reliability.

Why consider this test?

The Hemoglobin by Cyanmethemoglobin test is performed to accurately measure the concentration of hemoglobin in the blood

1. Diagnosing Anemia
2. Monitoring Blood Disorders
3. Pre-Surgical and Pre-Procedure Assessment
4. Evaluating Symptoms
5. Assessing Response to Treatment
6. Routine Health Screenings

Who should get this test done?

The Hemoglobin by Cyanmethemoglobin test is useful for a variety of individuals, depending on their health conditions and needs.

1. People with Symptoms of Anemia- Fatigue, weakness, dizziness, pale skin, or shortness of breath, a hemoglobin test can help diagnose or rule out anemia.
2. Individuals with Chronic Health Conditions- Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD), Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)
3. People Undergoing Major Surgery- Pre-Surgical Assessment
4. Patients with Blood Disorders- Polycythemia, Sickle Cell Disease
5. People with Nutritional Deficiencies

More Information

The Cyanmethemoglobin test is based on the principle that hemoglobin can be converted into a stable compound called cyanmethemoglobin, which can be measured colorimetrically. This method involves converting all forms of hemoglobin in the blood sample into cyanmethemoglobin, a stable and measurable form.
