Unstable Haemoglobin variant: Can you spot the incorrect result? This month, we explore a patient with Hb G Ferrara, a mildly unstable haemoglobin variant. Unstable Hb variants can cause hemolytic anemia, but how do they affect blood tests? The answer lies in the scattergram. But which one? Take the online quiz to see if you can spot the spurious result! https://lnkd.in/eau7VRdv Don’t forget to share your results and discussion in the comments below! #Hematology #BloodTest #Sysmex

Did you know that fibrinogen deficiency can be either inherited or acquired? 🩸 When a blood vessel is damaged, several processes are initiated by the body to facilitate healing. Fibrinogen plays a decisive role in this precisely choreographed sequence of clotting events. If the concentration of fibrinogen in a person`s plasma falls below a critical level or fibrinogen does not function correctly, the ability to stop bleeding is compromised. Dive into the science of fibrinogen with us. 👇 #hematology #precisionmedicine #WeAreInnovation

In a study involving >6,000 people with #sicklecelldisease (SCD) and >17,000 age- and race-matched controls who were followed for one year postpartum, the risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) was 11.3 percent in the patients with SCD versus 1.2 percent in controls. Arterial thromboembolism also increased (5.2 percent versus 0.6 percent in controls). This study emphasizes the value of postpartum VTE prophylaxis in people with SCD and the need for vigilance in evaluating suggestive symptoms.

A case of young lady with anemia, thrombocytopenia , mild elevated LDH with renal impairment. It is not TTP , neither HUS but one of its DDx in which schistocytes can be seen in PB smear. Although it is not TTP, it might be useful to offer TPE for such patient. What do you think ?! Just a small refreshing snack ☺️ #blood #hematology #hematopathology #transfusion #apheresis
