About this listen
- To identify potential patients, a diagnostic workup of AIHA is essential, including antibody type, patient history and physical exam, hemoglobin levels and blood cell counts, blood smear examination and direct antiglobulin test (DAT)
- Diagnostic criteria for CAD include chronic hemolysis, polyspecific DAT positive, monospecific DAT strongly positive for C3d, CA titer ≥64 at 4°C and a bone marrow evaluation (advised in patients with CAD at diagnosis)
- Hemoglobin is the most direct indicator of clinical severity
