    Transcript

    00:00 What I’m going to do here, ladies and gentlemen, I’m going to name a feature, you will tell me if it’s intra or extravascular hemolysis.

    00:07 Are you ready? Hemoglobinemia equals hemoglobinuria, intra or extravascular? Intra.

    00:16 Good.

    00:17 Jaundice, significant jaundice, intra or extra, tell me? Extra.

    00:24 I said significant jaundice.

    00:26 Good.

    00:27 Decreased serum haptoglobin, intra or extra? Intra.

    00:33 Good.

    00:34 Why? Hemoglobin’s released.

    00:36 It binds to haptoglobin.

    00:39 Haptoglobin levels will decrease in intravascular.

    00:42 LDH, non-specific.

    00:46 Pigment stones, cholelithiasis, extravascular, are you with me? Good job.

    00:54 Hepatosplenomegaly, more so in which type of hemolysis? I can’t hear you.

    01:00 Extravascular, nice job!.

    01:01 All right, so go through these clinical features see if you’ve understood everything that I’ve talked about, you should be able to go through this quickly, bam, bam, bam.

    01:09 If you’re not able to do that, that’s okay.

    01:11 Go back to the previous discussion and lay it on the foundation before we move on.
