Abstract

Objective: The changes of urinary red blood cell morphology and the average volume of red blood cell were examined by MCV. Method: In 100 cases of patients with urinary sediment microscopy of hematuria, and used blood cell analyzer for determination for MCV in urinary RBC. Results: Renal hematuria MCV and the outer peripheral blood MCV has significant difference (p < 0.01) and non-renal hematuria and peripheral blood MCV had no significant difference, glomerular hematuria and non-glomerular hematuria erythrocyte deformity was significantly different (p < 0.01), renal hematuria MCV is less than or equal to 73 fL, abnormal red blood cells with 2 or more, deformity rate is more than or equal to 76%. Conclusion: RBC phase combined with MCV detection of urine RBC is the practical value in diagnosis of glomerular hematuria.
