RDW CV 20

High RDW CV level of 20 can cause a number of symptoms.

An abnormal RDW-CV (Red Cell Distribution Width - Coefficient of Variation) value of 20 can reflect variability in red blood cell size, often related to nutritional deficiencies or anemia. A RDW-CV result of 20 might be associated with iron, B12, or folate deficiencies, or bone marrow dysfunction. Significant variation in red cell size may also occur in chronic diseases, liver disorders, or post-transfusion. RDW-CV is useful when interpreted alongside MCV to pinpoint underlying hematologic conditions. Multiple treatments are available, but the key action is to change your diet right away.

Below are the symptoms and treatments associated with high RDW-CV levels:

  • Symptoms of High RDW-CV Levels:
    • High RDW-CV indicates a greater variation in red blood cell size, which may be a sign of an underlying health issue, such as anemia, vitamin or mineral deficiencies, or chronic disease.
    • Symptoms can be related to the underlying condition and may include fatigue, weakness, dizziness, or pale skin.
    • In some cases, high RDW-CV may be associated with more severe forms of anemia, such as megaloblastic anemia or iron deficiency anemia.
  • Treatments for High RDW-CV Levels:
    • Treatment will focus on correcting the underlying cause, such as iron supplements for iron deficiency anemia or vitamin B12 or folate supplements for deficiencies in these nutrients.
    • If an underlying chronic disease (e.g., kidney disease or liver disease) is contributing to high RDW-CV, managing the disease will help normalize RDW levels.
    • In some cases, additional treatments like blood transfusions or medications to stimulate red blood cell production may be necessary.

What to do after RDW CV blood test?

If bleeding occurs after your RDW CV test, raise your arm and apply pressure to the spot for at least 3 minutes. It’s normal to see some bruising after a RDW CV blood draw. If you feel pain following the RDW CV test, apply ice wrapped in a towel to the area for 10 minutes. For anything more than mild discomfort, contact your doctor.
