AB Acquired  hemolytic  anemias  are  a  group  of  disorders  characterized  by  hemolysis  of  red  blood  cells  (RBCs)  not  due  to  congenital  or  inherited  disorders  of  hemoglobin  synthesis  or  of  the  RBC  membrane.  Hemolysis  of  RBCs  can  take  place  within  the  intravascular  space  or  in  the  extravascular  spaces  of  the  spleen  and  liver  and  can  produce  a  spectrum  of  disease  from  mild,  asymptomatic  illness  to  severe  hemodynamic  compromise  leading  to  critical  ED  encounters.
