Patient Hemoglobin Level Assessment

A 34-year-old female patient is undergoing routine blood tests to evaluate her overall health. One of the key laboratory values assessed is the complete blood count (CBC), which includes information on red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. In this case, the normal range for hemoglobin is typically between 12 to 16 grams per deciliter (g/dL) for women. If the patient's hemoglobin level is found to be 10.5 g/dL, this indicates a potential risk for anemia.

To complete the assessment, please fill in the blank with the hemoglobin level in both fraction and decimal formats. Fill in the blank below: The patient's hemoglobin level is ______.
