Active
Term Description
Ascitic fluid polymorphonuclear (PMN) cell count is essential for the diagnosis and management of spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP) a frequent and severe complication of decompensated cirrhosis. A PMN cell count greater than 250 cells/mm3 is highly suspicious of SBP and provides an indication to begin antibiotic treatment.

Part Description
LP18643-4 Granulocytes
Granulocytes are a category of white blood cells characterised by the presence of granules in their cytoplasm. Mature granulocytes comprise neutrophils, eosinophils and basophils, depending on the staining of the granules. Neutrophils, also called polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN or PML) because of the varying shapes of the nucleus, are by far the most abundant granulocytes.
