Haematological Modifications of Peripheral Blood Cells Among Patients with Covid-19

Purpose: The haematological changes in Covid-19 patients continue to receive great attention, especially in the field of public health. As far as we know, coronavirus disease may be identified based on the severity of illness, and the study of peripheral blood smears may offer important information to help with this. Thus, we evaluated the morphological abnormalities and quantitative changes in blood cells among 48 individuals with Covid-19 disease.Methods: The peripheral blood smears from the 48 patients were taken for haematological evaluation. based on peripheral blood smears.Results: The results of the haematological study showed elevated levels of WBCs, hematocrit, and ESR and a reduced level of platelets. The micronucleus test revealed immature cells with numerous nucleated abnormalities indicated among RBSc and lymphocytes. Additionally, among the individuals with Covid-19, the complete blood counts showed lower numbers of neutrophils, eosinophils, and monocytes.Conclusions: A simple haematological analysis along with the micronucleus test is a quick and efficient method for detecting the morphological abnormalities of peripheral blood cells early stages of Covid-19 disease among patients. It reveals the organism's inflammatory response to infection and validates the disease severity prediction that can strengthen and promote our insights for an effective prognosis of this.
