Overview
Haemoglobin (Hb) is a protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen from the lungs to the body’s tissues. A Haemoglobin test measures the amount of haemoglobin in the blood, which can help diagnose and monitor conditions such as anaemia, polycythaemia, and other blood disorders. Abnormal haemoglobin levels can indicate a range of health issues, including iron deficiency, vitamin deficiencies, and chronic diseases.
Description
Haemoglobin is a vital protein in red blood cells that plays a crucial role in transporting oxygen from the lungs to the body’s tissues and organs. It is composed of iron and protein, and its primary function is to bind to oxygen and carry it to the body’s cells, where it is used to produce energy. Haemoglobin also helps remove carbon dioxide, a waste product, from the body’s tissues and transport it back to the lungs for exhalation.
