About peripheral smear test

Why is the peripheral smear test done?

A complete blood count (CBC) checks different components of your blood. If you have symptoms of a blood disorder or if your CBC test reports are abnormal, your doctor may also request a blood smear. Among these signs are:

  • Fatigue
  • Jaundice
  • Light skin tone
  • Unusual bleeding, such as
  • nosebleeds
  • Fever
  • Bone ache

You can also go for the peripheral smear test if you have malaria. When a blood smear is examined under a microscope, parasites may be visible.

What does peripheral smear measure?

The peripheral smear test measures:

  • The amount and type of white blood cells, including those that are abnormal in shape (percentage of each type of cell)
  • The levels of white blood cells, red blood cells and platelets.
  • Normal Results:
    A blood smear test results are normal if your blood contains a healthy amount of normal cells.
Risks/side effects of peripheral smear test

There are usually no side effects or risks associated with a peripheral smear test. However, you might feel some pain for a few days in the area from where the blood will be taken using a needle. You can cover the same area with a bandaid to prevent infections from developing.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

FAQs

When is a peripheral smear performed?

A blood smear can be performed:
to examine the abnormalities found on a complete blood count (CBC), including high or low red blood cell count, white blood cell count, or platelet count.
to check an infection (the types of white blood cells present can tell us whether an infection is viral, bacterial, or parasitic).
to determine the reasons for unexplained jaundice and weight loss, spleen, liver, or lymph node enlargement, paleness, petechiae, bruising, or excessive bleeding in those having a low platelet count.

How to prepare for the peripheral smear test?

No special preparation is required for the peripheral smear test. However, if your doctor has advised further blood tests, you may be required to fast for several hours before the test.

How is the peripheral smear test performed?

The peripheral smear test is performed by collecting your blood sample from a vein using an injection. In the case of a newborn, the sample might be collected from the heel. The area from where the blood would be withdrawn would be first cleaned using some alcohol. You can later cover it with a gauze pad. The peripheral test can be done either at a hospital, laboratory, or clinic. Home collection services are also available.

THINGS TO KNOW AFTER GETTING TESTED

Interpreting the peripheral smear test results

Your peripheral smear results will check for abnormality in your blood cells. Red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets will all have their respective results.
If your red blood cell findings are abnormal, it could be due to the following:

  • Anemia
  • Sickle cell disease
  • Thalassemia
  • Bone marrow disorders
  • Hemolytic anemia, a condition in which healthy red blood cells get destroyed first and develop later.

If your white blood cell count is abnormal, it could be due to the following:

  • Infections
  • Allergies
  • Leukemia

If your platelet results are abnormal, you might have thrombocytopenia (having lower than normal platelet count).

If any of your blood smear results are abnormal, your doctor may prescribe more tests to confirm the diagnosis.

Ms Sujata arrived on time and was very polite and caring throughout the process. Actually there was a mistake on my part where I couldn't attend her calls because I was not well and i feel asleep bcoz of my medicines. I had scheduled an appointment for my mother but Ms Sujata somehow reached my address by asking my neighbours. Such a lovely girl, and also the collection process was really smooth. Would absolutely recommend everyone to check out their services
