BASIC RULES• DON’T PANIC! Common things that you
have seen before!• Know normal ranges. You are given
normal ranges; it is better if you can immediately spot abnormalities.
• Look at patient details e.g. age, sex. Certain diagnoses will be more likely in certain groups.

• Look at the history you are given. This will be key to deciding the diagnosis.
• Be logical- go through each value and note whether it is normal, slightly/grossly elevated or slightly/markedly low.
• Sound professional: “there is mild hyperkalaemia”, not “the potassium’s a bit up”.

– All three abnormal in the same direction, would suggest bone marrow problem
– All increased in polycythaemia rubra vera– All decreased in bone marrow suppression.
• Red cell indices– Macro/microcytosis
