Hematopoietic Syndrome, often associated with acute radiation syndrome, occurs when the bone marrow is severely damaged, leading to a significant reduction in blood cell production. This results in symptoms such as anemia, increased susceptibility to infections, and bleeding disorders due to low levels of red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. The syndrome typically manifests after exposure to high doses of ionizing radiation, and its severity depends on the radiation dose received. Treatment focuses on supportive care, including blood transfusions and infection management.
