Immunohematology is a division of hematology and transfusion medicine which studies antigen-antibody reactions and analogous phenomena as they relate to the pathogenesis and clinical manifestations of blood disorders. The maven Immunohematology and Transfusion Physician provides expert opinion for difficult transfusions, massive transfusions, incompatibility work up, therapeutic plasmapheresis, cellular therapy, irradiated blood therapy, leuko reduced and washed blood products, stem cell actions, platelet rich plasma therapies, HLA and cord blood banking. Immunohematological tests enable safe blood transfusion and transplantation of haematopoietic tissue, as well as avoid undesired immune-related phenomena after transfusion, transplantation and during pregnancy.

Hemoglobin is a red protein responsible for transferring oxygen in the blood of vertebrates. Its molecule comprises four subunits; each holding an iron atom bound to a haem group. Iron plays an important role in hemoglobin production. A protein named transferrin binds to iron and transports it throughout the body. This helps body make red blood cells, which contain hemoglobin.
In Human, Iron metabolism is the set of chemical reactions that conserve human homeostasis of iron at the systemic and cellular level. Iron is both essential to the body and potentially toxic. Regulating iron levels in the body is a critically important part of many aspects of human health and disease.

COVID-19 is a systemic disease with a significant impact on the hematopoietic system and hemostasis. Patients with cancer may be huge susceptible to and have higher morbidity and mortality rates from COVID-19 than the general population, while epidemiologic data specifically addressed to hematologic patients are limited. The prevalence of COVID-19 in hematologic patients, mostly affected by malignancies, was not significantly higher compared to that of the general population. The revision enlightens on the epidemiology, risk factors and outcomes of COVID-19 among patients with HM. While the COVID-19 vaccinations will lead to a marked reduction of infections in HM patients, the possibility of a lower efficacy of vaccinations needs to be taken into account and possibly resembling previous experiences with influenza vaccination.

Anemia is a condition in which there is a lack of red cells or of hemoglobin in the blood, resulting in pallor and weariness.  The main cause of anemia is low levels of iron in the body, so it is also called as iron-deficiency anemia. Human body needs a certain amount of iron to make hemoglobin, the substance that moves oxygen throughout your body. Whereas anemia causes a symptom like

  • Wooziness, lightheadness, or feeling like you are about to pass out
  • Fast or unusual heartbeat
  • Headache
  • Pain, including in your bones, chest, belly, and joints
  • Complications with growth, for children and teens
  • Shortness of breath
  • Skin that's pale or yellow

  • Cancer
  • Hemophilia
  • Hodgkin‘s disease
  • Leukemia
  • Lymphoma
  • Myeloma
  • Sickle cell anemia

These nurses are responsible for execution check-ups, collecting blood samples, ordering blood tests, initiating IVs, administering medications, assisting with blood transfusions, operating medical machinery, and providing medical care and treatment to patients who are dealing with a variety of illnesses.

Hematology nurses look after and inspect conditions that are associated with blood problems and also bone marrow problems, which is the factory where all the blood cells are made.

Neuro-hematology is study of the variations in the composition of the blood occurring in diseases of the nervous system.
A wide spectrum of hematologic disorders causes the central and peripheral nervous system. These disorders include like

  • Porphyria
  • Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura-hemolytic uremic syndromes
  • Sickle cell disease
  • Plasma cell dyscrasias
  • Monoclonal gammopathy
  • Primary systemic amyloidosis
  • Primary systemic amyloidosis
  • Waldonstrom’s macroglobulinemia
  • Myeloproliferative syndromes
  • Cryoglobulinemia, and polycythemia vera

Some, like porphyria, cause both central and peripheral nervous system manifestations containing sensory/motor peripheral neuropathy, dysautonomia, pain, seizures, and abdominal pain.
Others such as sickle cell disease primarily affect the brain and cause both clinically apparent strokes associated with a vasculopathy of large intracranial blood vessels, as well as a smaller amount obvious micro strokes that cause progressive cognitive decline if not treated.

Leukemia is a malignant progressive disease in which the bone marrow and other blood-forming organs produce numbers of immature or abnormal leucocytes. These suppress the production of normal blood cells, foremost to anemia and other symptoms. Leukemia is malignant tumor of the white blood cells. White blood cells (also called leukocytes or WBCs) fight infections and additional diseases. In leukemia, the bone marrow (spongy material inside the bones) makes several white blood cells that aren't normal. These abnormal WBCs gather the bone marrow and get into the bloodstream.

Whereas blood cancer that initiates in blood-forming tissue, such as the bone marrow, or in the cells of the immune system and it affect the production and function of blood cells.  Maximum blood cancers, the normal blood cell development process are interrupted by uncontrolled growth of an abnormal type of blood cell. These abnormal blood cells, or cancerous cells, inhibit blood from performing many of its functions, like fighting off infections or preventing serious bleeding.

The word hemoglobinopathy refers to a number of inherited disorders that result from mutations in the globin (alpha, beta, or gamma) genes. These mutations result in either condensed production or altered structure of the hemoglobin (Hb) molecule.
The hemoglobinopathies are a group of disorders delivered down through families (inherited) in which there is abnormal production or structure of the hemoglobin molecule. This group of disorders includes

  • Hemoglobin C disease
  • Hemoglobin S-C disease
  • Sickle cell anemia
  • Thalassemias

Acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL) and chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) are two kinds of blood cancer that affect specific white blood cells produced by the bone marrow, called lymphocytes. ALL is also termed as acute lymphocytic leukemia.
CLL is the most common form of leukemia cancer distressing adults. ALL primarily causes children, although it can occur in adults. Both acute lymphocytic leukemia and chronic lymphocytic leukemia produce comparable symptoms, including:

  • Fatigue and weakness
  • Fever
  • Night sweats
  • Frequent infractions
  • Easy bruising and bleeding
  • Weight loss
  • Swollen lymph nodes
  • Abdominal fullness

A hematologist oncologist is a medic who specializes in dealing with cancer of the blood. They have additional training in the blood system, lymphatic system, bone marrow, and cancers.
The word “hematologist oncologist” comes from two different types of clinicians. Hematologists focus in diagnosing and treating blood diseases. Oncologists specialize in make a diagnosis and treating cancers. Whereas hematologist oncologist specializes in both. Hematology-oncology contains such diseases as

  • Iron deficiency anemia
  • Hemophilia
  • Sickle cell disease
  • Thalassemias
  • Leukemia
  • Lymphomas

In a cord blood transplant, stems cells are composed from umbilical cord blood. Umbilical cord blood is the blood not there in the umbilical cord after a baby's birth. The cord blood can be frozen and kept until it's used in a cord blood transplant. Cord blood is a process of collecting potentially life-saving stem cells from the umbilical cord and placenta and storing them for forthcoming use. Stem cells are immature cells that can undertake the form of other cells
 The purpose of Cord blood is, it encloses cells called hematopoietic stem cells. These cells can crack into any kind of blood cell and can be used for transplants that can cure diseases such as blood disorders, immune deficiencies, metabolic diseases, and some kinds of cancers.

Hemostasis is the mechanism that indicates to cessation of bleeding from a blood vessel. It is a process that contains multiple interlinked steps. This cascade culminates into the development of a “plug” that closes up the damaged site of the blood vessel controlling the bleeding. It is the procedure of stopping or arresting bleeding or keeping the blood within the damaged blood vessel, particularly by physiological means such as vasoconstriction and coagulation or by surgical means.

The thrombosis is a formation or occurrence of a blood clot in a blood vessel. The vessel may be any vein or artery as, for instance, in a deep vein thrombosis or a coronary (artery) thrombosis. The clot itself is characterized a thrombus. If the clot breaks unattached and travels through the bloodstream, it is a thromboembolism. Thrombosis, thrombus, and the prefix thrombo- all arise from the Greek thrombo meaning a lump or clump, or a curd or clot of milk.

Myelodysplastic is a type of cancer in which the bone marrow does not make enough well blood cells (white blood cells, red blood cells, and platelets) and there are abnormal cells in the blood and/or bone marrow. When there are rarer healthy blood cells, infection, anemia, or bleeding may occur.
Myeloproliferative is a type of disease in which the bone marrow makes too several red blood cells, platelets, or certain white blood cells. There are several kinds of myeloproliferative disorders

  • Polycythemia Vera
  • Essential Thrombocythemia

A Pediatric hematologist is treating with blood disorders and cancers in children, teens, and young adults. Childhood cancers are matchless type of cancers, the etiology of which is uncertain however majority of these cancers are curable. Common cancers seen in childhood contain Acute Leukemia (Blood cancers), solid tumor like neuroblastoma, Wilms’ Tumor and Brain tumors. The cure rates of these cancers have increase from less than 10% survival in 1960’s to > 90% survival in the present age. Outcome of childhood cancers is one of the most remarkable amongst all cancers across age groups put together provided these cancers are diagnosed early and treated appropriately.
