What (who) is autoimmune hemolytic anemia - definition
Autoimmune hemolytic anemia
AUTOIMMUNE DISEASE OF BLOOD THAT IS CHARACTERIZED BY DEFICIENT RED BLOOD CELLS CAUSED BY AUTO-ANTIBODIES.
Autoimmune haemolytic anaemia; Anemia, hemolytic, autoimmune; Autoimmune haemolytic anaemias; Autoimmune haemolytic anemia; Autoimmunic hemolytic anemia; Immune-mediated hemolytic anemia
Autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) occurs when antibodies directed against the person's own red blood cells (RBCs) cause them to burst (lyse), leading to an insufficient number of oxygen-carrying red blood cells in the circulation. The lifetime of the RBCs is reduced from the normal 100–120 days to just a few days in serious cases.
Warm antibody autoimmune hemolytic anemia
WARM AUTOIMMUNE HEMOLYTIC ANEMIA IS THE MOST COMMON FORM OF AUTOIMMUNE HEMOLYTIC ANEMIA (SEE THIS TERM) DEFINED BY THE PRESENCE OF WARM AUTOANTIBODIES AGAINST RED BLOOD CELLS (AUTOANTIBODIES THAT ARE ACTIVE AT TEMPERATURES BETWEEN 37-40B0C)
Warm agglutinin; Warm autoimmune hemolytic anemia
Warm antibody autoimmune hemolytic anemia (WAIHA) is the most common form of autoimmune haemolytic anemia. About half of the cases are of unknown cause, with the other half attributable to a predisposing condition or medications being taken.
Congenital hemolytic anemia
HUMAN DISEASE
Congenital nonspherocytic hemolytic disease; Congenital nonspherocytic hemolytic anemia; Congenital nonspherocytic anemia
