What is a Therapeutic Blood Draw?
Therapeutic phlebotomy is a physician-ordered procedure that involves the removal of a set amount of blood to reduce excess red blood cells or iron in the body. It is commonly used to treat:
-
Hereditary & Secondary Hemochromatosis
-
Polycythemia Vera
-
Porphyria Cutanea Tarda
-
Liver dysfunction due to iron overload
-
Sickle cell management (when indicated)
-
Post-transplant erythrocytosis
Therapeutic phlebotomy may be recommended for individuals diagnosed with:
-
Hereditary Hemochromatosis
A genetic condition causing excess iron buildup in the body, which can damage organs if untreated. -
Secondary Hemochromatosis
Often caused by repeated blood transfusions, anemia treatments, or chronic liver disease. -
Polycythemia Vera (PV)
A rare blood cancer that leads to overproduction of red blood cells, increasing the risk of blood clots, stroke, or heart attack. -
Porphyria Cutanea Tarda (PCT)
A rare disorder affecting the liver and skin, often treated by reducing iron levels through phlebotomy. -
Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD)
In some cases, therapeutic phlebotomy may help reduce iron-related liver stress. -
Sickle Cell Disease (in select cases)
To manage iron overload from transfusions or reduce blood viscosity under medical supervision. -
Post-Kidney Transplant Erythrocytosis
When red blood cell levels rise excessively after transplant, phlebotomy may help restore balance.
