A fortuitous but characteristic blood smear observation allowing a late diagnosis of MPS-VII

We are traditionally used Microscope in clinical laboratory for determination of white blood cells of human blood smear. Now, in this study we were used Foldscope with Smartphone in the place of Microscope and examine many samples of human blood smear which was collected from local diagnostic centers. We were very easily quantity & morphology analysis of all types of WBC cells such as Neutrophils, Lymphocytes, Monocytes, Eosionophils, Basophils in blood smear with the help of Foldscope & image taken by Smartphone. The main objective of this study is to use Foldscope for quantity & morphology analysis of human WBCs at field level especially poor resource area where healthcare services or centers is not available & where carry of microscope is not possible.

Number Of Cells

Leukocytes or white blood cells have a characteristic characteristic of different cells. Determination of the impression of the number of leukocytes is determined in the number of cells in the field of view. While the number of viewable field cells expressed is still quite varied. The purpose of this study was to determine the number of leukocytes in the field of view and expressed the impression of a sufficient amount. This research was conducted at the Laboratory of Health Analyst Department Panrita Husada Bulukumba on 9 April 2017 to 14 July 2017. This type of research is a laboratory observation that aims to determine the criteria for assessing the impression of the number of leukocytes on a peripheral blood smear. Data analysis using statistical analysis is the average and standard deviations to determine the impression of the number of leukocytes and use 3 inspection zones. The results of this study obtained results in zone IV the number of leukocyte impressions said to be sufficient was 7-10, in zone V the number of leukocyte impressions said to be sufficient was 4-9, and in zone VI the number of leukocyte impressions said to be sufficient was 3-8.

Normal Platelet

During pregnancy, there will be a marked change in anatomy, physiology and biochemistry since the onset of pregnancy and often lackof nutrient intake. Hematologic disorder is often found in pregnant women because it causes pregnant women more susceptible to disturbances in blood circulation, The purpose of this study to determine the description of blood smear results in pregnant women in the laboratory RSUD H.A.Sulthan Daeng Radja District. This research is descriptive with laboratory observation approach. The sample used in this study were 30 samples of pregnant women who checked themselves in the Laboratory of RSUDH.A.Sulthan Daeng Radka Bulukumba District. The result of this research showed the result of peripheral blood smear on the morphology of erythrocytes using 30 samples of pregnant women showed 14 samples (46,66%) normocytic normochrom and the remaining 16 samples were morphological variation (53,33%), on morphological examination and platelet count with using 30 samples of pregnant women showed each 29 samples had morphology and normal platelet counts with respectively 96.66% percentage and platelet aggregation and decreased platelet count (thrombocytopenia) with each persentase 3.33%. At leukocyte morphology examination using 30 samples of pregnant women showed 29 samples had normal morphology with 96,66% percentage and one sample with hypersegmentation with percentage 3,33%. normal leukocyte count at 9 samples with percentage 30% and leukocyte count increased at 21 samples with percentage 70%.

Careful History

Pancytopenia is an important clinico-haematological entity and striking feature of many serious and life-threatening illnesses. Many haematological and non-haematological diseases involve the bone marrow primarily or secondarily and cause pancytopenia. Decrease in haemopoietic cell production, ineffective haemopoiesis and peripheral sequestration or destruction of the cells are the main pathophysiology of pancytopenia. The cause of pancytopenia thus may be lying in the bone marrow or in the periphery or both. Careful history, physical examination, simple blood work, review of the peripheral blood smear, sometimes bone marrow examination and trephine biopsy are required for diagnosis. Treatment and prognosis depend on the severity of pancytopenia and underlying pathology.
