Acquired Hemophilia A (AHA) is Rare and Often Missed – RPTH Journal
RPTH Journal shared a post on LinkedIn:
“Acquired hemophilia A (AHA) is rare — and often missed.
This team developed an automated, sequential laboratory-based algorithm to detect AHA early in patients with isolated prolonged aPTT.
Out of 359,229 blood samples, the algorithm identified 3 new AHA cases among 1,816 flagged probes. It was all diagnosed on day one of hospitalization, without prior clinical suspicion.”
