Equipped with cutting-edge technology and staffed by skilled hematologists and laboratory technicians, the department offers comprehensive diagnostic and therapeutic services. It conducts a wide range of tests, including complete blood counts (CBC), coagulation profiles, bone marrow analysis, and specialized assays for diagnosing conditions like anemia, leukemia, lymphoma, clotting disorders, and other hematological abnormalities. Emphasizing accuracy and promptness in test results, the department plays a crucial role in patient diagnosis, treatment planning, and monitoring, ensuring high-quality care for patients with hematologic conditions.

Haematology F&Q

The primary focus of the Haematology department is to diagnose and treat blood-related disorders. This includes conditions like anemia, leukemia, lymphoma, clotting disorders, and other blood cell abnormalities. The department performs various blood tests, bone marrow examinations, and other diagnostic procedures.

Common tests include the complete blood count (CBC), coagulation tests (such as PT, APTT), blood smear analysis, hemoglobin electrophoresis, and bone marrow aspiration or biopsy.

Haematology works closely with other departments, such as Oncology for cancer patients, Internal Medicine for general disorders, and Surgery for patients requiring procedures that impact blood health. Collaboration is essential for comprehensive patient care and treatment planning.

Hematologists diagnose and manage blood disorders, guide treatment plans, and monitor patients' responses to therapy. They are also involved in research and clinical trials to develop new treatments for hematological conditions.

Advances in molecular biology, genetics, and targeted therapies have significantly improved the diagnosis and treatment of blood disorders. These developments have led to more effective and personalized treatment options, resulting in better patient outcomes and survival rates, especially in blood cancers.

Blood transfusions are typically managed in collaboration with the Blood Bank and Transfusion Medicine department. However, hematologists play a key role in determining the need for transfusions and monitoring patients during and after the procedure, especially in cases involving complex blood disorders.
