Anemia
529 krInformation about Anemia
Discover our new health check for the analysis of blood deficiency or anemia, an important indicator of your general health is your blood and body oxygenation. Anemia, or blood deficiency, which means a lower level of red blood cells, can affect your energy and well-being.
Symptoms of anemia may include:
- Fatigue
- Shortness of breath
- Dizziness
- Low blood pressure, especially when standing up
- High heart rate to compensate for the lower blood pressure
- Headache
- Jaundice (if the blood cells break down prematurely)
- Pale skin and mucous membranes
Blood test for those who suspect anemia
Health Check insights into your blood health status by analyzing three main causes of anemia:
- Loss of red blood cells due to bleeding
- The body's self-destruction of red blood cells
- Reduced ability to produce new blood cells due to various factors.
Analyses included in the blood test
The blood markers below provide a comprehensive overview of different aspects of the blood and its ability to transport oxygen, which is crucial to diagnosing and understanding different types of anemia.
Vitamin B12: This vitamin is essential for the production of healthy red blood cells. Lack of B12 can lead to anemia.
Folate (folic acid): Folate is necessary for DNA synthesis and plays a role in the production of red blood cells. Deficiency can cause anemia.
Iron: Iron is an important component of hemoglobin, the protein that enables the transport of oxygen in the blood. Iron deficiency can lead to various forms of anemia.
Hemoglobin (Hb): Measures the amount of hemoglobin in the blood and gives an indication of the body's ability to transport oxygen.
MCV (Mean Corpuscular Volume): Indicates the average volume of the red blood cells and can help identify different types of anemia.
MCH (Mean Corpuscular Hemoglobin): Measures the average amount of hemoglobin in each red blood cell and provides additional information about anemia.
MCHC (Mean Corpuscular Hemoglobin Concentration): Measures average concentration of hemoglobin in each red blood cell and may be useful in diagnosing anemia.
EVF (Erythrocyte Volume Fraction also called Hematocrit): Measures the proportion of the blood made up of red blood cells and provides information on blood volume.
Production of red blood cells
The blood is formed in the bone marrow, located inside large bones such as the sternum and femur. The formation of red blood cells requires iron, folic acid, and vitamin B-12 and is regulated by the protein erythropoietin (EPO) from the kidneys. A normal red blood cell has no nucleus, lives about 120 days, and can change shape to smoothly pass through small blood vessels. The amount of red blood cells is measured as hemoglobin (Hb), where normal values for women are 120-155 g/L and for men 130-170 g/L. Additional blood tests, such as MCV, MCH, MCHC, and EVF, provide information about the size, hemoglobin percentage, and percentage of red blood cells in the blood.
Understand your health better:
The Anemia check-up gives you the opportunity to identify anemia and at the same time possibly investigate the cause. By catching early signs, you can take steps to improve your blood health. Order your anemia test today and take an important step towards increased health awareness.
Proteins are specific nutrients made up of several combined amino acids. In the body, there are over 10,000 different proteins that form the building blocks of all tissues and other body parts and are used in several important processes such as forming cells, enzymes and hormones.
HB
Hemoglobin
Hemoglobin transports oxygen and carbon dioxide, it is produced in the bone marrow and is important for the body's function and for the diagnosis of diseases.

MCV
MCV
MCV stands for erythrocyte mean cell volume. Low or high levels of MCV can indicate anemia and other conditions and diseases.

Heart and blood vessel biomarkers are specific substances or indicators that can be measured in the blood to evaluate the health and function of the cardiovascular system. These biomarkers provide valuable information about the risk, diagnosis, and management of various heart and blood vessel conditions.
EVF
Hematocrit, EVF
Hematocrit, EVF, a percentage of red blood cells in the blood, shows oxygen transport and health.

HBM
Hemoglobin mass
Hemoglobin mass is affected by several factors such as number of red blood cells, size and amount of hemoglobin mass in each cell. Higher hemoglobin mass results in better oxygen delivery and reduced fatigue during physical activity.

Minerals are non-organic compounds that are used as building blocks to build up parts of the body.
FE
Iron
Common symptoms and causes of high and low iron levels. Imbalanced iron levels can cause various conditions that may sometimes require treatment.

B12
Cobalamin
Cobalamin (vitamin B12) is necessary for the body's functionality in the nervous system and for the production of red blood cells. Lack of vitamin B12 can indicate health problems that need to be followed up.

B9
Folate (folic acid)
Folate is an important B vitamin that plays a central role in cell growth and function, the production of DNA and RNA, and blood formation.
