What does this test Hereditary Hemolytic Anemia (HHA) Panel identify?

Hereditary Hemolytic Anemia (HHA) Panel

The Hereditary Hemolytic Anemia (HHA) Panel is a test that identifies various genetic mutations that can cause hemolytic anemia. Hemolytic anemia is a condition in which red blood cells are destroyed faster than they can be produced, leading to a shortage of healthy red blood cells in the body. This can result in symptoms such as fatigue, jaundice, and an enlarged spleen.

The HHA Panel specifically looks for mutations in genes that are associated with different types of hereditary hemolytic anemia, including:

  • Sickle cell anemia
  • Thalassemia
  • Hereditary spherocytosis
  • Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency

Identifying these genetic mutations can help healthcare providers diagnose the specific type of hemolytic anemia a patient has, which can guide treatment decisions and provide important information for family members who may be at risk for the same condition.

Why is this test Hereditary Hemolytic Anemia (HHA) Panel taken?

Why is the test Hereditary Hemolytic Anemia (HHA) Panel taken?

The Hereditary Hemolytic Anemia (HHA) Panel is taken to diagnose and evaluate different types of inherited hemolytic anemias. Hemolytic anemias are a group of disorders characterized by the premature destruction of red blood cells, leading to a low red blood cell count and various symptoms such as fatigue, weakness, jaundice, and shortness of breath.

This panel helps identify specific genetic mutations that may be causing the hemolytic anemia, allowing for appropriate treatment and management. It can also help determine the underlying cause of anemia and guide further testing and treatment options.

Overall, the Hereditary Hemolytic Anemia (HHA) Panel is a valuable tool in diagnosing and managing individuals with suspected inherited hemolytic anemias, providing important information for healthcare providers to develop personalized treatment plans.
