Abstract

Purpose: In this study, normal values of haematological parameters in healthy male and female individuals between 25-64 years of age in the central region of Sivas were investigated. Materials and Methods: This study was performed on 530 healthy adult males and females who have been living in central Sivas. The individuals evaluated as healthy using the applied questionnaire results were included in the study. Haematological parameters (eritrocyte, leukocyte, thrombocyte, mean thrombocyte volume, hemoglobin, hematocrit, mean corpuscular volume, mean corpuscular hemoglobin, mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration and percentage neutrophil, lymphocyte, monocyte, eosinophil, basophil) were measured in the blood samples. Results: Normal values of studied haematological parameters of Sivas populace were determined by this study and the values obtained were evaluated according to sex and age groups. Conclusion: Obtained haematological values of adults who lived in Sivas were in accordance with the values reported as normal by other studies in the literature. Differences in some parameters could be originated from the methodology, geographical conditions, feeding habits of Sivas populace and the manner of lives.
