The usual cause of abnormal hemolysis in newborn is blood group incompatibility between mother and baby either Rh or ABO. Other causes are much less common-hereditary spherocytosis, thalassemia, G6PD deficiency etc.

Explain the meaning of Haemolysis and crenation?

Haemolysis is the breaking open of red blood cells and the release of hemoglobin into the surrounding fluid . Crenationis the contraction or formation of abnormal notchings around the edges of a cell after exposure to a hypertonic solution, due to the loss of water through osmosis.Crenation occurs because in a hypertonic environment, (that is, the cell has a lower concentration of solutes than the surrounding extracellular fluid), osmosis (the diffusion of water) causes a net movement of water out of the cell, causing the cytoplasm to decrease in its volume. As a result the cell shrinks.


What will excessive squeezing around a capillary puncture site cause?

Excessive squeezing will cause haemolysis of the sample, i.e., the rupture of red blood cells, thus releasing their content (Hb and electrolytes) into the plasma. Haemolysis will alter potassium, ionised calcium (ICa), phosphate and enzymes. If gross haemolysis occurs, all results may be affected, due to a dilution of the sample by dissolved haemoglobin. Tissue fluid (resulting in increased potassium levels) may also contaminate the blood sample if you squeeze too hard.
