| Summary: | Introduction: Red Blood Cell (RBC) count, White Blood Cell
(WBC) count, Platelets and their indices correlates with increased
risk and severity of Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS).
Aim: To assess various haematological parameters like WBC,
Absolute Neutrophil Count (ANC), Absolute Lymphocyte
Count (ALC), Neutrophil Lymphocyte ratio (NLR), Mean
Platelet Volume (MPV), Platelet Distribution Width (PDW) and
all RBC parameters in patients diagnosed with ACS as risk
predictors.
Materials and Methods: A prospective hospital based study
was carried out on 116 cases with ACS and 116 controls (age
and sex matched) from 1st November, 2015 to 30th June, 2017
considering the inclusion and exclusion criteria.
Results: The incidence of ACS in males (72.4%) was more as
compared to females (27.6%). The most commonly affected
age group was 5th decade. Total WBC count, ANC, ALC, NLR,
MCHC, MPV and PDW showed significant association in ACS
compared with healthy control group and in concordance with
biochemical or electrocardiography results.
Conclusion: The study concludes that Total WBC count, ANC,
ALC, NLR, MCHC and PDW parameters can give clinician a
helping hand in diagnosis, assessing severity and timely
interventions in cases of ACS admitted in intensive care units. |
