Conditions Treated by Dr. Charu Batra Atreja

Dr. Batra Atreja provides expert care for a wide spectrum of hematologic conditions, including but not limited to:

1. Anemia

• Iron Deficiency Anemia: Caused by a lack of iron, leading to fatigue, weakness, and shortness of breath.
• Vitamin B12 Deficiency Anemia: Occurs when the body lacks enough vitamin B12, resulting in impaired red blood cell production.
• Hemolytic Anemia: A condition where red blood cells are destroyed faster than they can be replaced, leading to various symptoms such as fatigue, jaundice, and an enlarged spleen.

2. Haemoglobinopathies

• Sickle Cell Anemia: An inherited disorder in which red blood cells become misshapen and block blood flow, causing severe pain and other complications.
• Thalassemia: A genetic disorder affecting hemoglobin production, leading to anemia, fatigue, and developmental delays in severe cases.

3. Bleeding and Clotting Disorders

• Hemophilia: A genetic disorder that prevents blood from clotting properly, resulting in prolonged bleeding even from minor injuries.
• Von Willebrand Disease: A common inherited bleeding disorder caused by deficiency or dysfunction of von Willebrand factor, essential for blood clotting.
• Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT): The formation of blood clots in the deep veins, usually in the legs, which can lead to serious complications if the clot travels to the lungs.

4. Blood Cancers

• Leukemia: A type of cancer that affects the blood and bone marrow, characterized by the abnormal production of white blood cells. It includes acute and chronic forms of leukemia.
• Lymphoma: A type of cancer that originates in the lymphatic system, impacting the body's immune response.
• Multiple Myeloma: A cancer of plasma cells in the bone marrow, which leads to bone damage, anemia, and kidney problems.

5. Myelodysplastic Syndromes (MDS)

A group of disorders caused by the bone marrow producing poorly formed or dysfunctional blood cells, leading to a higher risk of infections, anemia, and excessive bleeding.

6. Bone Marrow Failure Syndromes

• Aplastic Anemia: A serious condition where the bone marrow fails to produce enough blood cells, resulting in severe anemia, infections, and uncontrolled bleeding.

7. Platelet Disorders

• Thrombocytopenia: A condition characterized by low platelet count, leading to increased risk of bleeding.
• Thrombocytosis: Excessive platelet production, which can increase the risk of blood clots and stroke.

Advanced Diagnostic and Laboratory Services

At at Crimson Healthcare, patients benefit from state-of-the-art diagnostic tools and laboratory services, ensuring accurate and timely diagnoses for effective treatment planning. These services include:

• Complete Blood Count (CBC): A standard diagnostic tool used to measure red and white blood cells, hemoglobin levels, and platelet counts. CBC is essential for detecting anemia, infections, and other blood disorders.
• Bone Marrow Biopsy and Aspirate: This procedure is crucial for diagnosing various blood cancers, bone marrow disorders, and unexplained anemia. It helps assess the health of the bone marrow and identify any abnormal cells.
• Coagulation Testing: Prothrombin Time (PT), Activated Partial Thromboplastin Time (aPTT), and International Normalized Ratio (INR): These tests assess the blood’s ability to clot and are essential for diagnosing clotting disorders like hemophilia or monitoring patients on blood thinners.
• Flow Cytometry: A sophisticated technique used to analyze blood or bone marrow cells. It helps detect lymphoproliferative disorders and acute leukemias by identifying specific cell types and markers.
• Iron Studies: Ferritin and Transferrin Saturation Tests: These tests are critical in diagnosing and managing iron deficiency anemia or iron overload conditions.

Personalized Treatment Plans

Dr. Batra Atreja believes in a tailored approach to hematology care. Each patient’s condition is unique, and treatment plans are developed based on the individual’s medical history, current health status, and specific needs. Treatment may include:

• Medications like iron supplements, vitamin B12 injections, or chemotherapy for cancer patients.
• Blood transfusions for severe anemia or blood loss.
• Bone marrow transplants for certain cancers and marrow failure syndromes.
• Anticoagulants or clotting factor replacements for patients with bleeding or clotting disorders.
