Consider PNH
Consider physical
agents including
MAHA/HUS/aHUS/TTP
Work-up for
autoimmune or
alloimmune causes
Positive
suboptimal reticulocytosis,
iron overload, or skeletal abnormalities
Negative
DAT and
indirect Coombs
Anemia with reticulocytosis
(jaundice, splenomegaly,
é LDH, ê haptoglobin)
Family History and
Blood Smear Review to
assist with diagnosis
normal except erythroid hyperplasia
binuclear or multinuclear erythroblasts CDA gene panel
RBC enzymopathies
gene panel
Normal
Globin gene
sequencing and
deletion/duplication
analysis
Abnormal
Abnormal
RBC membrane disorders
gene panel, especially if
splenectomy is contemplated
RBC enzyme activity
Globin gene and
HHA/CDA panel or subpanels
depending on family history
and smear review
Bone Marrow Studies
Hemolytic Anemia Diagnostic Algorithm
No
Chronically
transfused patient
Normal
Normal
Ektacytometry
(osmotic fragility also an
