Haematology

Hematology is the branch of medicine that focuses on the study, diagnosis, and treatment of blood disorders. This includes conditions affecting the blood cells (red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets), blood vessels, bone marrow, and the lymphatic system. Haematologists manage diseases such as anaemia, leukaemia, lymphoma, and clotting disorders.

Types of Procedures in Haematology

  • Complete Blood Count (CBC): A blood test that measures the levels of different blood cells (red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets), as well as haemoglobin and haematocrit levels. It helps diagnose conditions like anaemia, infections, and blood cancers.
  • Bone Marrow Biopsy: A procedure where a small sample of bone marrow is extracted (usually from the hipbone) to examine the marrow's cellular content. It is used to diagnose conditions such as leukaemia, lymphoma, and multiple myeloma, as well as to evaluate bone marrow function.
  • Blood Smear: A microscopic examination of a thin layer of blood spread on a slide to evaluate the shape, size, and number of blood cells. It helps diagnose anaemia, blood disorders, and infections.
  • Coagulation Tests: Tests that measure the blood's ability to clot. Common tests include:
    • Prothrombin Time (PT): Measures how well and how quickly the blood clots.
    • Activated Partial Thromboplastin Time (aPTT): Assesses the intrinsic pathway of blood coagulation.
    • International Normalised Ratio (INR): Standardises PT results to monitor patients on anticoagulant therapy.
  • Bone Marrow Aspiration: Similar to a biopsy, this procedure involves taking a small amount of bone marrow fluid to analyse the cells and diagnose haematologic disorders. It is often performed along with a bone marrow biopsy.
  • Flow Cytometry: A technique used to analyse the physical and chemical characteristics of cells in a blood or bone marrow sample. It helps diagnose and classify leukaemias, lymphomas, and other blood cancers.
  • Genetic Testing: Used to identify genetic mutations or abnormalities associated with blood disorders. It is important for diagnosing conditions like certain types of leukaemia, myelodysplastic syndromes, and inherited blood disorders.
  • Iron Studies: A series of tests to assess iron levels and storage in the body. Includes tests like serum iron, ferritin, total iron-binding capacity (TIBC), and transferrin saturation to diagnose iron deficiency or overload conditions.
  • Haemoglobin Electrophoresis: A test that separates different types of haemoglobin in the blood to diagnose conditions like sickle cell disease or thalassaemia.
  • Peripheral Blood Stem Cell Collection: A procedure to collect stem cells from the bloodstream for use in bone marrow transplants. It involves mobilising stem cells into the bloodstream and then collecting them through apheresis.
  • Plasma Exchange (Plasmapheresis): A procedure where plasma is removed from the blood and replaced with donor plasma or a substitute. It is used to treat certain autoimmune or haematologic disorders.
  • Platelet Function Tests: Tests that assess how well platelets are functioning in the blood clotting process. It helps diagnose bleeding disorders or monitor patients with platelet disorders.
