  • 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. ...

  • Part of the blood made up of red cells (expressed as percentage)
  • The hematocrit measures how much space in the blood is occupied by red blood cells. It is useful when evaluating a person for anemia. The normal range for hematocrit is 40.0% to 52.0%.
