Typically, there are different measures of red cell counts and they include red cell mass, red cell volume, red cell count, haematocrit and haemoglobin concentration. Physiologic factors such as age, sex, altitude, smoking status or pregnancy account for slight inter-individual and intra-individual variations. In essence, red cells are maintained at a constant volume in the body, depending on several factors. Any imbalances affecting production or destruction of red cells result in red cell disorder. ![]() ![]() With an average life span of about 100–120 days, erythrocyte production and senescence is maintained in constant equilibrium.
