What is a Full Blood Count (FBC) Test?
A Full Blood Count, often called a Complete Blood Count (CBC), is a comprehensive blood test that measures various components in your blood. These include red blood cells, which carry oxygen throughout the body, white blood cells, which fight infection, and platelets, which help your blood to clot.
At our Wimpole Street clinic, we use the latest laboratory technology and UKAS-accredited methods to analyse your blood sample. This ensures accurate results, typically available within 1 working day. Results include laboratory reference ranges and are delivered through our secure patient portal.
What Does a Full Blood Count Measure?
A Full Blood Count test examines your blood for the following key markers:
Red Blood Cell Count (RBC)
Measures how many red blood cells are present in your blood and helps detect anaemia or polycythaemia.
Haemoglobin (Hb)
The protein in red blood cells responsible for carrying oxygen. Low levels can indicate iron deficiency or anaemia.
Haematocrit (Hct)
Shows the proportion of your blood volume made up of red blood cells.
Mean Corpuscular Volume (MCV)
Measures the average size of red blood cells. Abnormal sizes can suggest different types of anaemia.
Mean Corpuscular Haemoglobin (MCH)
Indicates the average amount of haemoglobin in each red blood cell.
Mean Corpuscular Haemoglobin Concentration (MCHC)
The average concentration of haemoglobin in your red blood cells.
White Blood Cell Count (WBC)
A key indicator of immune system function, often elevated during infection or inflammation.
Platelet Count
Platelets are essential for blood clotting. Low or high platelet counts can indicate various conditions.
Red Cell Distribution Width (RDW)
Measures the variation in size of red blood cells. It can help distinguish between different types of anaemia.

When Should You Have a Full Blood Count Test?
A Full Blood Count is a valuable test for a range of reasons. You might consider booking an FBC test if you are experiencing:
Fatigue or Tiredness
Persistent tiredness could be a sign of anaemia or low iron.
Frequent Infections
A low or high white blood cell count may indicate immune issues.
Unexplained Bruising or Bleeding
This could be related to platelet levels.
General Health Monitoring
An FBC provides a baseline for your overall health.
Pre-Operative Assessment
Doctors may request an FBC before surgery to assess blood health.
Chronic Disease Management
Monitoring blood health is important for conditions like kidney disease, rheumatoid arthritis, and cancer.
