What happens during the disease - acquired haemolytic anaemia

Acquired haemolytic anaemia is a condition caused by the destruction of red blood cells by the body's own immune system. this destruction of red blood cells is triggered by a variety of factors, including autoimmune diseases, infections, toxins, and drugs. the body's immune system mistakenly identifies the red blood cells as foreign and begins to attack and destroy them. this results in a decrease in the number of red blood cells and a decrease in the amount of oxygen being transported throughout the body.
