Complete Blood Count Anemia Diagnosis
Description
This data set presents the prevalence of different types of Anemia including it’s severity and association with age and gender of the study population with CBC data set parameters as variables. We generated dataset from complete blood count test performed by Hematology analyzer to determine the prevalence of different types of Anemia treated at the Eureka diagnostic center in Lucknow, India. All the procedures for the CBC test were done following standard operating protocols defined for the Hematology analyzer. For CBC investigation, 400 patient samples were randomly selected to compute the dataset from the patients who visited the Eureka diagnostic center in Lucknow for various clinical examinations. The diagnostic center performs 4 – 8CBC investigations a day on average. During the data collection period between September 2020 to December 2020, 1000 CBC investigations were performed, out of which 400 random samples were selected. We included adult males and females who are not pregnant and older than 15 years of age in the study population. Infants, young children less than 10 years old and pregnant women were excluded from the study due to various factors like variable CBC test values and other factors. After excluding the above stated persons from the randomly chosen sample of 400 patients, we were left with 364 patients in the final data set. The CBC report had 11 attributes in the data set shown below serial number ,Attributes,Attribute Characteristics,Abbreviation,Description of attributes(all values captured at the time of CBC test of patients ) , Normal range of attributes(range may varies for male and female) 1 Age Numerical age Current age of the patients 11 - 100 (years) 2 Gender character gender Gender Male /Female 3 Hemoglobin Numerical HGB Level of HGB 11-16 g/dL 4 Mean cell volume numerical MCV Level of MCB 80-101 fL 5 Mean cell hemoglobin numerical MCH Level of MCH 27-32 pg 6 Mean cell hemoglobin concentration numerical MCHC Level of MCHC 31-37 g/dL 7 Red cell distribution width numerical RDW Level of RDW 11 -16 % 8 Red blood cell count numerical RBC Level of RBC 3.80-04.80 M/uL 9 White blood cell count numerical WBC Level of WBC 3.5-11.5 ths/uL 10 Platelet count numerical PLT Level of PLT 150-450 (10^3/uL) 11 Packed cell volume numerical PCV Level of PCV 36-46 These attribute values were recorded in excel sheet for each patient in the sample data set. In our patient data set the objective is to detect the existence of Anemia and measure its magnitude according to the guidelines of the World Health Organization (WHO). Accordingly, the prevalence of Anemia in an individual can be categorized as mild, moderate or severe depending on the value of the Hemoglobin (HGB) attribute in the patient data set.
