RDW Index
A formula combining MCV, RDW and red cell count.
Derived arithmetic with no independent screening value.
This one isn’t a test
RDW Index = (MCV × RDW) ÷ RBC count
No extra sample was taken for this and no extra assay was run. It is arithmetic on numbers already on your report — but it still adds a line to the advertised test count.
Computed from RBC Count, MCV and RDW.
That does not make the number useless — eGFR is calculated and doctors act on it every day. It means it should not be counted as a separate test when you are comparing what a package costs.
How we rate it — Filler
Rarely changes anything for someone with no symptoms.
This rating and the description above were written against published screening guidelines by someone who is not a clinician, and are awaiting review by one. We would rather say that than imply an authority we do not have.
