Patient's question:
My child's white blood cell count is 180,000 in 13 days. Is it? How much is? There is mild pneumonia. Currently hospitalized, already been there for 5 days. How many white blood cells are normal for a newborn?Doctor's answer:
Newborn white blood cell counts can be elevated. The highest normal range is 15~2010^-9 (which is 15~20 multiplied by 10 to the power of 9). Did you mean 180,000? For newborns with pneumonia, the diagnosis is not primarily based on white blood cell counts. The above advice is for the question "Does my child's 13-day-old white blood cell count of 180,000 mean it's abnormal?" and I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
