Mayo Test ID HAEV0 Hemolytic Anemia Summary Interpretation

Useful For

Incorporating and summarizing subsequent results into an overall evaluation if 1 or more molecular tests are reflexed on HAEV1 / Hemolytic Anemia Evaluation, Blood.

Testing Algorithm

This test is an additional consultative interpretation that summarizes all testing as well as any pertinent clinical information, and will be provided after all tests are completed to incorporate subsequent results into an overall evaluation if 1 or more of the following molecular tests are reflexed on the HAEV1 / Hemolytic Anemia Evaluation, Blood:

-ATHAL / Alpha-Globin Gene Analysis, Varies

-WASQR / Alpha-Globin Gene Sequencing, Blood

-WBSQR / Beta-Globin Gene Sequencing, Blood

-WBDDR / Beta-Globin Cluster Locus Deletion/Duplication, Blood

-WGSQR / Gamma-Globin Full Gene Sequencing, Varies

 

This summary is in addition to interpretations that may be provided for individual components.

Clinical Information

The evaluation of patients with hemolytic anemia can be very complex and involves incorporation of not only testing, but integration of clinical and peripheral blood findings. Nonimmune hemolytic anemia can be due to many causes, including abnormalities in the hemoglobin molecule, red blood cell (RBC) membrane/cytoskeleton, or RBC enzyme cascade. If the evaluation of nonimmune hemolytic anemia utilizes the reflex molecular tests, a summary interpretation will be added to summarize the genetic, protein, peripheral blood, and clinical findings (if provided) will be added. This is beneficial to the ordering provider.

Reference Values

Only orderable as a reflex. For more information see HAEV1 / Hemolytic Anemia Evaluation, Blood.

 

An interpretation report will be provided.

Interpretation

An interpretive report will be provided that summarizes all testing as well as any pertinent clinical information.
