Complete Blood Count

Aka: Complete Blood Count, CBC
  1. Efficacy
    1. Complete Blood Count is over-utilized in acute infectious illness
      1. Does not distinguish Sepsis, Septic Joint, Bacterial Meningitis, Appendicitis, Diverticulitis, occult Bacterial Infection
      2. CBC is the “Last Bastion of the Intellectually Destitute” (Amal Mattu)
