Leucopenia

Health Care Term


Leucopenia is a medical condition characterized by an abnormally low white blood cell count. White blood cells, also called leukocytes, help the body to fight against infections, diseases, and foreign substances. A low count of these cells can weaken the immune system making the body vulnerable to infections and diseases.

Leucopenia can be a symptom of various medical conditions, such as viral infections (e.g. HIV, viral hepatitis), bacterial infections (e.g. tuberculosis), autoimmune diseases (e.g. lupus), bone marrow disorders (e.g. leukemia), and medications (e.g. chemotherapy drugs). The severity of the condition depends on the underlying cause and the extent of the reduction in white blood cells.

Leucopenia is diagnosed via a blood test that measures the total number of white blood cells in a person's bloodstream. Depending on the severity of the condition and the cause, treatment options may vary. In some cases, medication or therapy to treat the underlying condition may help to increase the white blood cell count. In other cases, blood transfusions or injections of white blood cell-stimulating factors may be needed.

In the healthcare industry, leucopenia is an important diagnostic indicator of the immune system's health and its ability to fight off infections and diseases. It is used to monitor patients undergoing chemotherapy, those with HIV or AIDS, and those with autoimmune disorders. It is also used to assess the risk of infection in patients undergoing surgery or other medical procedures. Monitoring a person's white blood cell count is an essential tool for healthcare professionals in ensuring a patient's overall well-being.
