Handbook of Benign Hematology is a practical guide to the diagnosis and management of benign hematologic conditions. The book begins with a chapter on normal hematopoiesis and follows with chapters devoted to different groups of blood disorders and syndromes including neutrophil disorders, non-malignant myeloid disorders, bone marrow failure syndromes, myeloproliferative disorders, hypoproliferative anemia, hemolytic anemia, iron metabolism disorders and porphyria, platelet disorders, hemostasis and coagulation defects, and thrombosis. Each subtype of the disorder covered within the chapters features a clinical case, an introduction to the condition, details on diagnosis including applicable criteria and lab work needed, key diagnostic dilemmas when conducting a differential diagnosis, prognosis, treatment options, details on clinical trials and emerging clinical strategies, and bulleted key points which highlight clinical pearls and common pitfalls. Important seminal and practice-changing references conclude each chapter. The final chapters provide best practices for transfusion medicine and a guide to pharmacologic agents and their uses in clinical practice for adult and pediatric patients. The handbook is filled with tables and illustrations which highlight FDA-approved drug information, clinical trials data, hematopathologic characteristics of different disorders, important management criteria and more. The result is a uniform and engaging approach that clinicians and practitioners can easily follow and use in practice or for review"--Provided by publisher.
