What is CBC, ESR?

CBC (Complete Blood Count) is a broad screening test that evaluates overall health and detects a variety of disorders, such as anemia, infection, and many other diseases. It measures several components of the blood, including: Red blood cells (RBCs): Carry oxygen White blood cells (WBCs): Fight infection Hemoglobin: Oxygen-carrying protein in RBCs Hematocrit: Proportion of blood made up of RBCs Platelets: Help with blood clotting ESR (Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate) is a test that measures how quickly red blood cells settle at the bottom of a test tube in one hour.

A higher rate can indicate inflammation, infection, or other medical conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, cancer, or autoimmune diseases. Both tests are used together to assess overall health, detect abnormalities, and monitor disease progression.

What to expect & how to prepare

CBC, ESR is performed at a diagnostic centre or hospital lab. A trained technician collects the required sample (commonly a blood draw, urine sample, swab or an imaging scan, depending on the test) and sends it to the lab for analysis. Most routine tests take only a few minutes to sample, with reports typically ready the same day or within 24–48 hours.

• Fasting: some tests require 8–12 hours of fasting (water is usually allowed). Ask the centre when you book.
• Medication: tell the lab about any medicines or supplements you take, as some can affect results.
• Timing: certain hormone and biochemistry tests are best done in the morning — confirm the recommended time.
• Report: always have a registered doctor interpret your CBC, ESR result rather than self-diagnosing.
