Description

Andrea Duminuco and co-authors review emergencies in blood medicine and how to treat them, in work published in 2024. These crises progress fast and can kill, so recognition and early action decide outcomes. The review walks through the mechanism, signs, diagnosis, and management of each major emergency.

Conditions covered include high blood calcium from cancers, white cell overload in leukaemia, sickle cell crises, and tumour lysis syndrome after cancer cells break down. Transfusion reactions range from mild allergy to shock. A clotting-and-bleeding disorder tied to one leukaemia type gets special attention. Newer therapies add cytokine release syndrome to the list, a fierce immune reaction that teams must catch early. The article serves as a practical guide for front-line clinicians.
