Hematocrit in blood samples
Hematocrit (HCT), or packed cell volume (PCV), is the percentage of red blood cells in circulating blood. The variable is determined with a complete blood count performed by Quest Diagnostics. See the routine laboratory tests subcategory description for blood sample collection and analysis procedures.
The variable is expressed as a percentage of red blood cells in a volume of blood.
