- Hematocrit: the ratio of the volume occupied by packed red blood cells to the volume of the whole blood as measured by a hematocrit
- Hematocrit: a measuring instrument to determine (usually by centrifugation) the relative amounts of corpuscles and plasma in the blood
- The hematocrit (Ht or HCT) or packed cell volume (PCV) or erythrocyte volume fraction (EVF) is the proportion of blood volume that is occupied by red blood cells. It is normally about 48% for men and 38% for women. ...
- A measure that tells what portion of a blood sample consists of red blood cells. Low haematocrit suggests anaemia or massive blood loss.
- A measurement of red blood cell levels. Low levels produce anaemia
