Hemolytic Anemias Flashcard Deck - 9 Cards

Flashcard 1: Transient myeloproliferative disease, usually resolves spontaneously in the 1st _____ months of life

Answer: 3

Flashcard 2: One consequence of autosplenectomy in sickle cell disease is increased risk of _____ due to Salmonella species infection

Answer: osteomyelitis

Extra: While *Staphylococcus aureus* is the most common cause of osteomyelitis in the general population, *Salmonella* species are a uniquely common cause in patients with sickle cell disease. This is due to a combination of functional asplenia (autosplenectomy) and intestinal/bone infarctions that facilitate bacteremia and seeding of the bone.

Flashcard 3: When does β-thalassemia major (β0/β0) typically present?

Answer: 6 months after birth

Extra: Symptoms of β-thalassemia major typically appear at around 6 months of age, coinciding with the physiological switch from fetal hemoglobin (HbF, α2γ2) to adult hemoglobin (HbA, α2β2). Since β-globin chains are absent in β-thalassemia major (β0/β0), the lack of HbA leads to severe anemia as HbF levels decline.

Flashcard 4: Beta-thalassemia _____ is characterized by expansion of hematopoiesis into facial bones, leading to "chipmunk facies"

Answer: major

Flashcard 5: Anaemia in a 12-14 year old child is defined as a hemoglobin level of less than:

Answer: 12 g/dL

Extra: WHO Hemoglobin thresholds for diagnosis of anemia: - Children (6–59 months): < 11 g/dL - Children (5–11 years): < 11.5 g/dL - Children (12–14 years): < 12 g/dL - Non-pregnant women (15+ years): < 12 g/dL - Men (15+ years): < 13 g/dL

Flashcard 6: Juvenile Myelomonocytic Leukemia, also known as juvenile CML typically affects children _____ than 2 years of age

Answer: younger

Flashcard 7: On complete blood count, patients with Systemic Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis will frequently present with: - _____ RBCs - increased WBCs - increased Platelets

Answer: decreased

Flashcard 8: _____ syndrome is a syndrome of thrombocytopenia and consumptive coagulopathy in a patient of hemangioma

Answer: Kasabach-Merritt

Flashcard 9: Kids with sickle cell disease should undergo _____ starting at age of 2 yrs to reduce the incidence of overt stroke

Answer: transcranial doppler ultrasound
