In hematology, Hemolytic anemia is an "A condition of inadequate circulating red blood cells (anemia) or insufficient hemoglobin due to premature destruction of red blood cells (erythrocytes)."[1]

Classification

One classification is based on whether hemolysis occurs intravascularly or extravascularly. Another classification is whether the erythrocytes are intrinsically normal:[2]

Hemolytic anemia associated with normal red cells

Hemolytic anemia associated with abnormal red cells

Diagnosis

Hemolysis

Autoimmunity:

Microangiopathic hemolytic anemia

  • Platelet count
  • ADAMTS13 protein activity and inhibitor (von Willebrand factor-degrading protease)[13]
