PERBANDINGAN NILAI HEMATOKRIT DARAH VENA METODE AUTOMATIK DAN DARAH KAPILER METODE MIKRO HEMATOKRIT

Abstract

Hematology examination aims to establish the diagnosis, supporting the early alert system, monitoring treatment,
maintaining health, and preventing disease. Hematocrit is a hematological examination with venous blood or
capillary blood. Increased hematocrit value has a diagnostic significance to detect, dengue hemorrhagic fever.
Decreased hematocrit is an indicator of anemia, leukemia, or hyperthyroidism.Hematocrit examination can use the
automatic method with a hematology analyzer or microhematocrit with a centrifuge. The examination material can
use venous blood or capillary blood.Through descriptive analytic research, want to know the comparison of venous
blood hematocrit values using an automatic hematology analyzer KX.21 and capillary blood using centrifuge. Data
analysis usesindependent t test. The results showed that the average hematocrit value of capillary blood by
microhematocrit method 42%, higher than venous blood samples by automatic method, which 41%. T independent
test results obtained p value: 0.383 greater than 0.05 values (p: 0.383> 0.05). There was no difference mean
hematocrit values from venous blood by automatic method and capillary blood by microhematocrit method.Both
sample types and methods did not affect the measurement of erythrocyte volume in 100 ml of blood
