Approach to Polycythemia

Explore a comprehensive 32-minute lecture on the approach to polycythemia in Complete Blood Count (CBC) analysis. Delve into the RBC lifecycle, differentiate between primary and secondary polycythemia, and understand relative erythrocytosis. Learn to systematically recognize appropriate versus inappropriate absolute increases in RBC due to secondary polycythemia. Apply your knowledge through polycythemia case studies. The lecture covers topics such as the lifecycle of RBCs, relative erythrocytosis, polycythemia vera, appropriate and inappropriate absolute increases in RBCs, and includes practical case studies for better understanding.
