Question
a cbc reveals that your patient has elevated wbcs and lymphocytes. this is most likely an indication of what?
A CBC (Complete Blood Count) measures different components of the blood, including white blood cells (WBCs). Elevated WBCs (leukocytosis) can indicate an infection or inflammation. Lymphocytes are a type of WBC. Elevated lymphocytes (lymphocytosis) often occurs in viral infections (e.g., mononucleosis, viral hepatitis). So, elevated WBCs and lymphocytes together most likely indicate a viral infection.
