• Beta Thalassemia:
• Thalassemia Minor
• Thalassemia Intermediate.
• Thalassemia Major or Cooley's Anemia
Alpha Thalassemia
• Chelation Therapy
• Binds free iron and reduces hemosiderin deposits
• 8-hour subcutaneous infusion of deferoxamine, 5 nights/week
• Start after 1year of chronic transfusions or ferritin>1000 ng/dl
• Splenectomy--indications
• Trasfusion requirements increase 50% in 6mo
• PRBCs per year >250cc/kg
• Severe leukopenia or thrombocytopenia
-Thalassemia Major Complications and
Emergencies
• Sepsis—Encapsulated organisms
• Strep Pneumo
• Cardiomyopathy—presentation in CHF
• Use diuretics, digoxin, and
deferoxamine
• Endocrinopathies—presentation in
DKA
• Take care during hydration so as not
to precipitate CHF from fluid
overload
Anticipatory Guidance and Follow Up
• Immunizations—Hepatitis B, Pneumovax
• Follow for signs of diabetes, hypothyroid,
gonadotropin deficiency
• Follow for signs of cardiomyopathy or CHF
• Follow for signs of hepatic dysfunction
• Osteoporosis prevention
• Diet, exercise
• Hormone supplementation
• Osteoclast-inhibiting medications
• Follow ferritin levels
