The document discusses positive direct antiglobulin tests (DAT) and autoimmune hemolytic anemias (AIHA). It describes how a DAT can detect IgG and complement coating red blood cells. A positive DAT may indicate autoantibodies, alloantibodies, drugs, or IVIG. Two main types of AIHA are warm (WAIHA) and cold (CAIHA). WAIHA is more common and often idiopathic or associated with malignancies or autoimmune disorders. CAIHA is usually secondary to infections and characterized by cold agglutinins. Treatment involves steroids, splenectomy or Rituxan. Transfusions require compatible blood that avoids underlying alloantibodies
This document summarizes autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA), including its classification, diagnostic tests, findings, and treatment approaches. It discusses the main types of AIHA - warm AIHA, cold AIHA, and drug-induced AIHA. Warm AIHA is the most common type, often idiopathic but sometimes secondary to other conditions. Diagnostic tests for AIHA include a positive direct antiglobulin test and findings such as low haptoglobin and high LDH. Treatment depends on the AIHA type but may include corticosteroids, rituximab, splenectomy or other immunosuppressants. Cold AIHA and drug-induced AIHA have their own characteristic serological and
A 74-year-old man presented with fever, increased shortness of breath, jaundice, and dark urine. Laboratory tests found hemolytic anemia with a positive direct antiglobulin test. Further evaluation indicated a diagnosis of autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA). AIHA occurs when a person's immune system attacks their own red blood cells. The patient's AIHA was treated with corticosteroids, which are the first-line treatment for warm antibody AIHA.
Coombs test ........,................pptxssuser815304
This document discusses hemolytic disease of the newborn (HDN), also known as erythroblastosis fetalis. It defines HDN as caused by maternal IgG antibodies crossing the placenta and coating fetal red blood cells. This leads to hemolysis of the fetal cells and potential anemia, hyperbilirubinemia, and hydrops fetalis in severe cases. The document outlines testing for HDN including Coombs testing of the mother, as well as management approaches such as monitoring the pregnancy, intrauterine transfusions, and exchange transfusions for the newborn if needed. Blood used for transfusions must be compatible with the baby's blood type and free of antigens the mother is sensitized against.
Mixed Type Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia.pptKirandragon
Mixed type autoimmune hemolytic anemia (MAIHA) involves both warm autoimmune hemolytic anemia (WAIHA) and cold agglutinin disease (CAD). MAIHA can be difficult to diagnose due to overlapping serologic features of the warm and cold antibodies. Previous studies estimated the incidence of MAIHA to be 6-8% of autoimmune hemolytic anemias, but a recent study found the actual incidence to be lower than 0.1%. Rituximab has shown promise in treating refractory cases of MAIHA. Strictly controlled serologic testing is important to accurately differentiate MAIHA from WAIHA or CAD alone.

Normocytic anaemia can be caused by a variety of inherited and acquired conditions. Inherited causes include red blood cell membrane defects like hereditary spherocytosis and elliptocytosis. Metabolic defects such as G6PD deficiency and pyruvate kinase deficiency can also cause haemolytic anaemia. Acquired causes include immune haemolytic anaemias such as autoimmune haemolytic anaemia and alloimmune haemolytic anaemia seen in haemolytic disease of newborn. Non-immune causes include paroxysmal nocturnal haemoglobinuria and mechanical destruction of red blood cells. Investigation and management depends on the underlying cause but may include corticosteroids, splenectomy or blood transfusions.
PATH-BLOOD TRANSFUSION AND ITS COMPLICATIONS.pptxViniSha7
Blood transfusion is done to replace lost blood through bleeding or increase blood counts in anemic patients. It involves collecting blood from healthy donors, testing the donor and recipient blood for compatibility, and transfusing compatible blood or components. Complications can include immunologic reactions like hemolytic transfusion reactions from ABO incompatibility, transfusion-related lung injury, or allergic reactions. Non-immunologic risks are circulatory overload, infections, air embolism, or iron overload. Proper donor selection, compatibility testing, and component preparation can help reduce risks, but complications still occur in some transfusions.

blood banking and components sept 2022.pptxvenugopal65248
This document provides an overview of blood banking and blood components. It discusses blood grouping systems like ABO and Rh, cross-matching processes, blood storage and components that can be transfused including red blood cells, platelets, fresh frozen plasma, and cryoprecipitate. It also covers topics like transfusion reactions, maximum blood order schedules, and risks associated with transfusions. The goal is to learn about blood banking processes and the uses of different blood components.
Blood products include red blood cells, plasma, platelets, cryoprecipitate, and whole blood. Red cells are used to treat anemia and increase hemoglobin. Plasma is used for coagulopathy or low coagulation factors. Platelets are used for thrombocytopenia or platelet dysfunction with bleeding. Cryoprecipitate contains factors VIII, VWF, XIII, and fibrinogen for bleeding disorders. Whole blood transfusions are rarely used today. Compatibility testing and crossmatching are done to prevent hemolytic transfusion reactions. Complications include immune reactions, infections, and issues from large volume transfusions like coagulopathy, hypothermia, and electrolyte imbalances.
introduction into blood banking science.pptxAmany Elshamy
Blood banking refers to the collection, separation, and storage of blood. Key aspects of blood banking include typing blood by groups like ABO and Rh, testing donations for infectious diseases, and separating whole blood into components like red blood cells, plasma, and platelets. The blood banking process aims to ensure donated blood is safe for transfusion. About 36,000 units of blood are needed daily in the US, with over 21 million blood components transfused annually. Proper donor screening and health checks are important parts of the donation process to reduce risks.

This document summarizes information about blood products and transfusion. It discusses how blood is collected from donors and tested before being separated into components like packed red blood cells, fresh frozen plasma, cryoprecipitate, and platelets. It describes the storage and uses of these components. The document also covers blood groups, cross-matching, transfusion reactions, complications of transfusion, indications for transfusion, and blood substitutes currently under investigation.
The antiglobulin test, also known as the Coombs test, was developed in 1945 to detect non-agglutinating antibodies attached to red blood cells. It uses anti-human globulin antibodies that act as a bridge to cause agglutination of red blood cells coated with IgG antibodies or complement components. The direct antiglobulin test detects in vivo sensitization to identify immune causes of hemolysis, while the indirect antiglobulin test detects in vitro sensitization for antibody screening and identification. Various modifications can increase the sensitivity of the tests, and both false positive and false negative results need to be considered.

1. Positive Direct Antiglobulin Test
and
Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemias
Jeffrey S. Jhang, M.D.
Assistant Professor of Clinical
Pathology
College of Physicians and Surgeons
of Columbia University
2. Direct Antiglobulin Test (DAT)
• Have red cells been coated in-vivo with Ig,
complement or both?
http://www.vet.uga.edu/vpp/clerk/hiers/FIG5Slide3.JPG
DAT can detect 100-500
molecules of IgG and
400-1100 molecules of C’
Polyspecific reagent
If positive, then IgG
and C3d specific reagents
DAT may be positive
without evidence of hemolysis;
Therefore clinical info important
3. Serologic Investigation of a
positive DAT
• Previous slide what proteins are coating
the cell: IgG only, complement, or both
• Test an eluate: remove the coating
antibodies and test them against panel cells
• Test the patient serum to identify
alloantibodies that may exist to red cell
antigens
4. Positive DAT may result from:
– Autoantibodies to intrinsic red cell antigens
– Circulating Alloantibodies bound to transfused donor
cells
– Alloantibodies in donor plasma containing products
reacting with transfused recipient’s cells
– Maternal Alloantibodies that cross the placenta and
bind to fetal red cells
– Antibodies against drugs on red cells
– Non-red cell immunoglobulins bound to red cell (e.g.
IVIG)
– A positive DAT does not mean decreased red cell
lifespan and therefore a history and physical is needed
to determine the significance of a positive DAT
5. If there is no evidence of
increased red cell destruction
(anemia, reticulocytes, LDH,
haptoglobin, hemoglobinemia,
hemoglobinuria,etc), no further
work-up of a positive DAT is
necessary
6. Questions to ask…
• Decreased red cell survival?
• Has the patient been recently transfused?
– Red cells, plasma containing products
• Is the patient on any medications that can cause a
positive DAT and hemolysis (e.g. penicillin,
aldomet, cephalosporins)?
• Has the patient received a transplant?
• Is the patient receiving IVIG?
• Is the patient pregnant? Is the patient a newborn
infant?
7. Hemolysis
• Def’n: Premature destruction of red blood
cells that may be due to the intravascular
environment or defective red cells
• normal red cell life span is 120 days;
decreased red cell survival studies
• Def’n Immune Hemolysis: shortening of
red cell survival due to the products of an
immune response
8. Intravascular vs. Extravascular
Intravascular
• red cells lyse in the
circulation and release
their products into the
plasma fraction; obvious
and rare
• Anemia
• Decreased Haptoglobin
• Hemoglobinemia
• Hemoglobinuria
• Urine hemosiderin
• Increased LDH
Extravascular
• ingestion of red cells by
macrophages in the liver,
spleen and bone marrow
• Little or no hemoglobin
escapes into the
circulation
• Anemia
• Decreased Haptoglobin
• Normal plasma
hemoglobin
• Increased LDH
10. Warm vs. Cold Auto
WARM
• Reacts at 37 degC
• Insidious to acute
• Anemia severe
• Fever, jaundice frequent
• Intravascular not common
• Splenomegaly
• Hematomegaly
• Adenopathy
• None of these
COLD
• Reacts at room
temperature
• Often chronic anemia
• 9-12 g/dL (less severe)
• Autoagglutination
• Hemoglobinuria,
acrocyanosis and
raynaud’s with cold
exposure
• No organomegaly
11. Warm Auto
• Most are idiopathic (30%)
• Older patients
• Secondary (acute or chronic) (70%)
– Malignancy esp. lymphoproliferative disorder
• predominantly B-cell lymphomas
– Rarely carcinoma
– Autoimmune disorders (e.g. SLE)
12. WAIHA Serologic Investigation
• DAT+
– Anti-IgG only 20-60%
– Anti-C3d only 7-14%
– Both 24-63%
• Antibody screen+
• All panel cells+
• Autocontrol+
• 50% of patients will have autoimmune antibody
left over in the serum (DAT should be 4+)
13. WAIHA Serologic Investigation
• Eluate: Remove antibody coating the
patient’s red cells and react them with test
cells
• Panagglutinin >90%
• Defined Specificity <10% (e.g. broad or
narrow anti-Rh; anti-e, anti-LW)
• Rarely other specificities such as Kell
14. WAIHA Underlying
Alloantibodies
• Remove antibodies coating the patient’s red cells
• Incubate these uncoated cells with the patient
plasma to adsorb autoantibodies
• Repeat as many times as necessary to get
autoantibodies out of plasma
• React patient plasma, which should have all
autoantibodies removed, with panel cells
• Rule out underlying alloantibodies
15. Don’t wait to transfuse
• Transfusion can be life saving in the setting
of WAIHA and severe anemia or unstable
clinical/cardiac status
• Do not wait for “compatible blood”
• Do not wait for underlying alloantibodies to
be worked up (several hours) when the
anemia is severe and life threatening
• “Least incompatible”?
16. Therapy
• B12, folate
• Steroids
– Prednisone 1-2mg/kg/day then taper when
Hgb>10
• Splenectomy
– If non-responder to steroids
• Rituxan
• Plasmapheresis is not effective (IgG is
extravascular; feedback may increase IgG)
17. Selection of Blood
• ABO compatible
• Negative for alloantibody and autoantibody
specificity
• Phenotype identical
• All units will be incompatible ?least
incompatible
18. Cold Auto
• 16-32% of all Immune Hemolysis
• Idiopathic (10%) Cold Agglutinin Disease
• Secondary forms (90%);
– Postinfectious
• Mycoplasma
• CMV
• EBV; Infectious mononucleosis
– Lymphoproliferative disorders
• E.G. B-cell lymphomas; sometimes intravascular
19. CAIHA Serologic Investigation
• Spontaneous agglutination in EDTA tube;
difficulties with ABO typing
• DAT+
– >90% positive for C3d only
– Antibody is usually IgM, binds in cold
(periphery), then dissociates in warm
– C3d may or may not shorten red cell survival
• Antibody Screen+
• Determine underlying alloantibodies using
autoabsorption techniques
20. CAIHA Serologic Investigation
• Specificity is I, IH or I (academic interest
only)
– Adult cells: I
– Cord cells: I
• Cold Agglutinin titers and thermal
amplitude studies
21. Cold Auto Treatment
• Again, with severe anemia or unstable
disease, transfusion can be life threatening
• Keep the patient warm
• Transfuse through a blood warmer
• Folate and B12
• Treat underlying disease
• Steroids usually poor response
22. Cold Auto Transfuse
• ABO/Rh compatible units
• Rule-out underlying alloantibodies and give
antigen negative units
• Crossmatch in warm
• Again, transfuse through a blood warmer
while keeping the patient warm
23. Paroxysmal Cold
Hemoglobinuria
• Idiopathic (rare)
• Post-infectious (more common)
• Occasionally seen in syphilis
• Biphasic Hemolysin
– IgG antibody that binds in the cold and fixes
complement
– At Warm temperatures, IgG dissociates and
complement remains
24. PCH Serologic Investigation
• DAT+ (>50%)
– Usually IgG; sometimes C3d
• Eluate often negative
• Antibody screen w+
• Antibody is panagglutinin with P or IH
specificity
• Donath-Landsteiner Test positive
26. PCH
• Transfusion can be life threatening in the
setting of severe anemia or clinical
instability
• Support with transfusions; B12 and folate
• Corticosteroids not helpful
• Treat underlying disorder
• ABO/Rh compatible units
28. Haptenic (e.g. Penicillin,
Cephalosporins)
• Drug Coats cell; antibody directed against
drug/red cell membrane
• DAT+ for IgG and possibly complement
• Eluate negative
• Nonreactive for unexpected antibodies
• Antibody eluted off red cells reacts with
cells+drug but not cells alone
• Hemolysis develops gradually
• Discontinue the drug and red cell survival
increases
29. Immune Complex (e.g.
ceftriaxone)
• Acute intravascular hemolysis; renal failure
common
• IgG or IgM antibody
• Hemolysis due to drug/anti-drug immune
complexes that associate with the cell
membrane
• Drug must be present for demonstration of
this antibody
30. Drug-independent AIHA (e.g.
alpha-methyldopa)
• Drug on membrane alters the tertiary
structure of the membrane
• Antibodies are generated against the
neoantigen induced by the drug
• The drug does not need to be present for
antibody detection if the membrane has
already been altered.
