Evaluation of Hematologic Patients - Training Protocol

The Hematology Service provides hematology consultations for patients at the Clinical Center
and participates in the training of hematology fellows. Patients with a broad range of
hematologic disorders must be available in order for the senior staff of the Service to
maintain clinical expertise and to provide the breadth of experience necessary for the
fellowship program. The purpose of this protocol is to meet these needs by allowing the
Hematology Service to see patients with a spectrum of hematologic diseases not studied on
existing research protocols at the NIH. These patients will be evaluated over the course of
several outpatient visits and returned to the care of their referring physicians.This study
was developed to evaluate and possibly treat patients with blood disorders. The Hematology
Service of the National Institutes of Health is responsible for the care of patients
participating in research studies. In addition the Hematology Service also provides
consultation for small groups of patients with blood disorders that have not been diagnosed
or that may need special testing.

This study will also provide doctors at the NIH the opportunity to learn more about a wide
range of blood disorders and conditions. Patients participating in this study will be
evaluated over the course of several outpatient visits and will continue to be cared for by
their regular physician.
