• Resumen

  • This article presents emergency management from scenarios across haematology. Patients with haematologic emergencies can have significant associated co-morbidities and can be daunting to doctors who have previously not encountered these clinical situations. Diagnosis requires a degree of familiarity with laboratory data interpretation and good bed-side skills in management of a sick patient. This review aims to instruct the reader on the key concepts in the diagnosis and management of frequently encountered emergencies.
