Patient's question:
I personally dislike looking up information about diseases online because it allows me to roughly understand what solutions exist for different illnesses. What is intravascular hemolysis?Doctor's answer:
Hemolysis (Hemolysis) refers to the rupture of red blood cells and the escape of hemoglobin, which is called red blood cell dissolution and is termed hemolysis. It can be caused by various different physical and chemical factors and toxins. In vitro, hemolysis can be induced by hypotonic solutions, mechanical strong agitation, sudden low-temperature freezing (-20°C to -25°C) or sudden freezing, excessive acidity or alkalinity, as well as alcohol, ether, soap, choline salts, and the like.
