So, what changed?
Researchers studied Hb levels across different ages and sexes 📊. They found that Hb levels shift as we grow. This means a single anaemia definition does not fit everyone! These results are changing how doctors find and treat anaemia across the world. 🌍 #Haematology

Haemoglobin thresholds to define anaemia from age 6 months to 65 years: estimates from international data sources Our results enable global harmonisation of clinical and public health haemoglobin thresholds for diagnosis of anaemia. Haemoglobin thresholds are similar between sexes until adolescence, after which m...

3/ A study published in The Lancet Haematology in 2024 sought to re-evaluate haemoglobin thresholds across different races, sexes and age groups using modern global data. They used data from 5 continents, surveying healthy individuals aged 6 months to 65 years. #haematology

🩸Hemoglobins disorder care transfusion in England should be better.
⚠️Guidelines do not necessarily match.
🧪Accurate transfusion medicine has the potential to decrease antibodies-further genotyping and increased donor heterogeneity is required.🤝
@geoff-white.bsky.social #MedSky #Haematology

📌The transfusion safety snapshot
The majority of incidences of haemoglobin condition were:
- Acute reactions
- Haemolytic Reactions
- Blood transfusion error (IBCT-SRNM)
SHOT received only 2 cases in 12 hospitals.
⚠️Is it possible that transfusion incidents are under-reported?
#haematology

🩸Alloantibodies may occur with lifelong transfusion in conditions as sickle cell disease
Compatible blood becomes even more difficult to locate. Rh (C,c,D,E,e) antigen matching and Kell antigen matching aid in the safety of transfusion. 🧬🧪
Have you heard of alloimmunisation? 🤔
