简要总结
Hemoglobinopathies are group of diseases characterised by abnormalities both qualitative and quantitative in the production of hemoglobin. The WHO estimates that overall at least 5.2% of the world population carry a significant variant of hemoglobinopathies. The most effective approach to reduce the burden of the society is to reduce the incidence by implementation of carrier screening programme. Detection of carrier status using complete hemogram and Hb Electrophoresis during pregnancy assess prevalence of hemoglobinopathies in pregnant women and provides prospective parents with the option of prenatal diagnosis for testing their fetus for hemoglobinopathies and also increase awareness among general population about prevention of birth of genetically abnormal child.
