Transfusion support of autoimmune hemolytic anemia: how could the blood group genotyping help?
Conventional pretransfusion testing based on hemagglutination assays can be challenging for patients with autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) because of the presence of auto-antibodies. It has been suggested that deoxyribonucleic acid-based methods could be more efficient in the selection of antigen-matched red blood cell units in those settings. Because of the high risk of alloimmunization of t...
متن کاملTransfusion therapy in autoimmune hemolytic anemia.
Autoimmune hemolytic anemias include warm and cold reactive autoimmune hemolytic anemias (WAIHA and CAD), paroxysmal cold hemoglobinuria (PCH), and drug-induced hemolytic anemias. If autoimmune hemolytic anemia is suspected, the clinical history should be communicated to the transfusion service, because specific tests to confirm these diagnoses are not routinely performed. This includes evaluat...

متن کاملHow I treat autoimmune hemolytic anemia.
Autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) is an uncommon entity that presents diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic dilemmas despite being a well-recognized entity for over 150 years. This is because of significant differences in the rates of hemolysis and associated diseases and because there is considerable clinical heterogeneity. In addition, there is a lack of clinical trials required to refine ...
متن کاملTransient thrombocytopenia after incompatible red blood transfusion in an infant girl with autoimmune hemolytic anemia.
We report on 5-month-old girl with severe autoimmune hemolytic anemia (hemoglobin 2.9 g/dl, positive direct Coombs test) in whom thrombocytopenia developed after red blood cell transfusion. The platelet count was 62.1 x 10(4)/mm3 on admission and rapidly fell to 6.0 x 10(4)/mm3 rapidly after transfusion of incompatible red blood cells with intravenous predonisolone administration. No increased ...
