犬猫贫血的实验室诊断#优质严制

1、讲座二 贫血的实验室诊断原著 Professor Michael J. Day翻译：刘睿 兽医师（广州），校对：戴庶 兽医师（广州） 前言如果要对贫血动物做出成功的诊断和管理，不可或缺一定水准的实验室检查。血液学检查可在院内做；或保存为EDTA抗凝血后，送检至商业诊断实验室。要进行基本的血液分析，最低限度的实验室设备应包括：微量血细胞比容法离心机和毛细管判读器、制备染色血涂片的材料、用于评估血涂片所用的显微镜。准备一台折射仪来测定血浆蛋白含量也是有价值的。如今，临床实验室已经有条件使用日趋精密的检测设备来进行血液分析。虽然大部分的检测设备能够获得可信的红细胞和白细胞数据，但血小板的检测值可能被

2、低估。在使用仪器检测血样的同时，应配合血涂片镜检。本讲座回顾了红细胞参数的相关知识，也包括血涂片检查中可能遇见的各种红细胞形态学改变情况。 红细胞参数红细胞计数，PCV和Hb红细胞压积（PCV）是指红细胞总数(RBCs)所占全血中的体积比。PCV测量：通过离心微量红细胞压积管后，人工判读数据，并记录为占血液总量百分比。血细胞压积（HcT）通过自动血液分析仪在细胞大小和数量的基础上判定。红细胞总数可使用自动化仪器，或血细胞计数器在镜下计数来获得，用RBC 1012/l 表示。血液中的血红蛋白（Hb）含量同样也可以使用自动化仪器判定，记录为g/dl。Hb（血红蛋白）的含量测定受血液样本中存在脂血症

3、、红细胞溶解症或胆红素血的影响。一个检验结果精确性的简单方法：3 Hb= Ht（血细胞压积）。检测到的数值要参照“正常范围值”来比较，但要明确“正常范围值”并不适用于所有情况。举例来说，初生或者怀孕动物可能会呈现数值偏差，并且某些动物也存在品种效应（例如，视觉猎犬 (sight hounds)就呈现高PCV值和低嗜中性粒细胞计数）。PCV，RBC计数和HB都反映了红细胞质量，并且这三个参数之间通常具有相关性，所以简单的测定PCV值即是一个良好的临床指征。PCV值通常被用于描述贫血的严重程度。犬PCV近似参考值：轻度贫血30-36%，中度贫血18-29%，重度贫血18%。猫PCV近似参考值：轻度

4、贫血20-24%，中度贫血15-19%，重度贫血60 109/l是再生性贫血反应的象征，400 109/表示显著的再生。作为另外一个选择，网织红细胞生成指数（RPI）也可能需要确定。RPI对“校正”贫血程度的评估和网织红细胞寿命有重要价值。1）贫血程度校正校正值%（或计数值）=绝对值%（或计数值） PCV值/正常PCV值 (45)2）网织红细胞寿命校正RPI = 校正值 % 1/血液成熟时间血液成熟时间取决于PCV值：PCV 45% 1 天 35% 1.5 天 25% 2 天 15% 2.5 天RPI 2.5时，表示再生性贫血反应。 猫集结状网织红细胞最初从骨髓中被释放，在经过10-12天的成

5、熟期后，转变为点状网织红细胞。 相比之下，点状网织红细胞在循环血液中出现需要3-4周。在猫上，集结状网织红细胞计数可判定再生性贫血，它反映骨髓再生活跃程度，而点状红细胞计数代表累积再生贫血。集结状红细胞计数40 109/l表示再生性贫血，200 109/l时表示显著再生性贫血。 骨髓评估对于非再生性贫血的病例，骨髓评估是诊断过程的一个重要步骤。可能需要采集两种样本：抽取骨髓内容物或用骨髓针穿刺活检。前一种样本给临床病理学专家分析，而后一种样本给组织病理学专家分析。骨髓穿刺针的优点是病理组织可得到更好的评估，但要获得优质的穿刺活检物却具有挑战性。将穿刺活检物放入福尔马林溶液固定之前先做压片。通常

6、在股骨干骨（猫）或髂骨嵴（犬）来获得样本。在大型犬，肋骨或胸骨节是骨髓抽取的备用位置。抽取的骨髓样本应放入EDTA或ACD（可从采血袋中获得）抗凝血剂中保存，同时至少要制备10张压片，迅速空气干燥后染色。主要的谱系细胞应该按照成熟程度、所占的相对比例、粒细胞和红细胞比例的顺序依次确定。同时应该检测异常细胞（肿瘤细胞）。 LECTURE 2. LABORATORY DIAGNOSIS OF ANAEMIA INTRODUCTIONThe anaemic patient cannot be successfully diagnosed and managed without at least so

7、me level of laboratory testing. This may be undertaken in-practice or by sending EDTA anticoagulated blood to a commercial diagnostic laboratory. The minimum in-practice equipment required for basic haematological analysis would be a microhaematocrit centrifuge and tube reader, materials for prepara

8、tion of a stained blood smear and a microscope for evaluation of the blood smear. A refractometer for assessment of plasma proteins is also valuable. Increasingly sophisticated instrumentation is now available for in-practice laboratories to undertake haematological analysis. Most of these machines

9、produce acceptable data for red and white blood cells but may underestimate platelets. It is essential to examine a blood smear in parallel with assessing the readings from such equipment. This lecture reviews the erythrocyte parameters and cytological changes that may be seen on examination of the

10、blood smear. ERYTHROCYTE PARAMETERSTotal red blood cell count, PCV and HbThe packed cell volume (PCV) is the percentage of blood volume made up of red blood cells (RBCs). It is determined manually by centrifugation of a microhaematocrit tube and recorded as a percentage of blood volume. The haematoc

11、rit (Hct) is determined by the automated haematology analyser on the basis of cell size and number. The total RBC count is determined in automated fashion or may be measured manually using a haemocytometer chamber and microscope. This parameter is recorded as RBC 1012/l. The concentration of haemogl

12、obin (Hb) in the blood is also determined in automated fashion and reported as g/dl. Determination of Hb concentration will be affected by the presence of lipaemia, haemolysis or bilirubin in the blood sample. A simple check for accuracy is that the Hb 3 should equal the haematocrit. These values ar

13、e assessed relative to a normal reference range but it should be remembered that these reference ranges may not apply to all situations. For example very young animals or pregnant animals may have outlying values and there are some breed-related effects (e.g. sight hounds have relatively high PCV an

14、d lower neutrophil count). The PCV, RBC count and Hb all reflect the red cell mass and these three parameters generally correlate, so simple PCV measurement is a good index to use. The PCV may be used to describe the severity of anaemia. As an approximation a dog has a mild anaemia with a PCV of 30

15、36%, moderate anaemia at 18 29% and severe anaemia at 18%. A cat has mild anaemia at 20 24%, moderate anaemia at 15 19% and severe anaemia at 60 109/l is indicative of a regenerative response and a count of 400 109/l indicates marked regeneration. Alternatively, the reticulocyte production index (RP

16、I) may be determined. The RPI corrects the count for the degree of anaemia and the lifespan of the reticulocyte. The first correction is for degree of anaemia that is calculated by:Corrected % (or count) = observed % (or count) observed PCV/normal PCV (45)The second correction is for reticulocyte li

17、fespan:RPI = corrected % 1/blood maturation timewhere maturation time depends upon the PCV: PCV 45% 1 day 35% 1.5 days 25% 2 days 15% 2.5 daysAn RPI 2.5 indicates a regenerative anaemia. Feline aggregate reticulocytes are recent marrow emigrants that become punctate reticulocytes after a 10 12 day m

18、aturation time. By contrast, punctate reticulocytes have been present in the circulation for 3 4 weeks. Aggregate reticulocytes should be counted to determine regeneration in the cat as they represent active bone marrow regeneration whereas punctate forms represent cumulative regeneration. An aggreg

19、ate count of 40 109/l indicates regeneration and of 200 109/l indicates marked regeneration. BONE MARROW EVALUATIONFor non-regenerative anaemia evaluation of the bone marrow is an important part of the diagnostic process. Two sample types may be collected: an aspirate of medullary content or a bone marrow needle core biopsy. The former sample is evaluated by the clinical pathologist and the latter by a histopathologist. The advantage of core biopsy is that the tissue pathology may be better evaluated, but o
