A Complete Blood Count (CBC) test is a blood test used to evaluate your overall health and detect a variety of disorders, including anemia, infection, and more. It measures several components and features of your blood, including red blood cells, white blood cells, hemoglobin, hematocrit, and platelets.

A CBC test helps in diagnosing conditions like anemia, infections, and many other diseases. It is also used to monitor your general health and to track the effectiveness of ongoing treatments. By analyzing the different components of your blood, doctors can gain valuable insights into your health.

The CBC test involves drawing a small amount of blood from a vein in your arm using a needle. The blood sample is then sent to a laboratory for analysis. The procedure is quick, typically taking only a few minutes, and is generally not painful, although you may feel a slight pinch.

Usually, no special preparation is needed for a CBC test. You can eat and drink normally unless your doctor advises otherwise. It’s important to inform your healthcare provider about any medications or supplements you are taking, as they may affect the results.

The risks associated with a CBC test are minimal. You may experience a slight bruise or discomfort at the site where the blood was drawn, but these symptoms typically resolve quickly. Serious complications are very rare.
