Full Blood Count
We offer a Full Blood Count (FBC) test at Tarlac Medical Center to help assess your overall health and detect a wide range of medical conditions early. Also known as complete blood picture or full blood examination, this routine laboratory test provides valuable information about your red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets—key indicators of your body’s current condition.
Our laboratory is equipped with modern diagnostic technology and handled by trained medical technologists to ensure accurate, reliable, and timely results.
What Is a Full Blood Count Test?
A Full Blood Count (FBC), sometimes referred to as CBC full blood count or complete blood counting, is a common blood test used to evaluate your general health and detect disorders such as infections, anemia, inflammation, and blood-related conditions.
This test measures:
- Red Blood Cells (RBC) – oxygen-carrying cells
- White Blood Cells (WBC) – infection-fighting cells
- Hemoglobin & Hematocrit – oxygen levels in the blood
- Platelets – blood clotting components
A full blood picture gives doctors a clearer view of what’s happening inside your body, even before symptoms appear.
What Does a Full Blood Count Test Mean?
The meaning of a full blood count test lies in how its results help physicians:
- Detect infections or inflammation
- Identify anemia or blood disorders
- Monitor chronic conditions
- Evaluate overall immune system health
- Support diagnosis before medical procedures
Doctors often request a full blood exam as part of routine checkups, pre-employment exams, or before surgery.
When Is a Full Blood Count Recommended?
We may recommend a full blood test if you experience:
- Fatigue or weakness
- Fever or frequent infections
- Unexplained bruising or bleeding
- Dizziness or pale skin
- As part of routine health screening
It is also commonly requested for annual physical exams and hospital admissions.
