  • Title: Reference Intervals in Neonatal Hematology.
    Author: Henry E, Christensen RD.
    Journal: Clin Perinatol; 2015 Sep; 42(3):483-97. PubMed ID: 26250912.
    Abstract:
    The various blood cell counts of neonates must be interpreted in accordance with high-quality reference intervals based on gestational and postnatal age. Using very large sample sizes, we generated neonatal reference intervals for each element of the complete blood count (CBC). Knowledge of whether a patient has CBC values that are too high (above the upper reference interval) or too low (below the lower reference interval) provides important insights into the specific disorder involved and in many instances suggests a treatment plan.
