Hematology | Hematocrit

Official Ninja Nerd Website: https://ninjanerd.org Ninja Nerds! In this physiology and hematology lecture, Professor Zach Murphy breaks down the concept of Hematocrit, explaining its clinical relevance, how it’s measured, and what it tells us about a patient’s blood composition. We begin by defining hematocrit as the percentage of red blood cells (RBCs) in whole blood, and how it reflects the oxygen-carrying capacity of the blood. The lecture covers how hematocrit is determined through centrifugation or automated analyzers and how it relates to other lab values like hemoglobin and RBC count. You’ll learn about factors that influence hematocrit levels, including hydration status, altitude, erythropoietin stimulation, and bone marrow function. We also review clinical scenarios associated with high hematocrit (e.g., polycythemia vera, chronic hypoxia) and low hematocrit (e.g., anemia, hemorrhage, hemolysis). This lecture provides a strong foundation for interpreting CBC results and understanding how hematocrit fits into broader clinical assessment.
