      Because the problems relating to blood transfusion in patients with autoimmune hemolytic anemia vary depending on the specific type of disease (warm antibody AHA, cold agglutinin syndrome, or paroxysmal cold hemoglobinuria), definitive diagnosis is crucial. Blood should never be considered to be contraindicated, even though the compatibility test may be strongly incompatible, without also considering such critical factors as the progression of the anemia.
