The direct Coombs' test may be used if doctors suspect a person is affected by a type of anaemia called haemolytic anaemia. Haemolytic anaemia is a condition where there are not enough red blood cells in the body because something in the body is destroying them.
Direct Coombs Testing. A Coombs test is performed to detect the presence of antibody against red blood cells. The test is used to support the diagnosis of immune-mediated hemolytic anemia (IHA). Up to 66-75% of dogs with IHA will have a positive Coombs test.he direct Coombs test is more sensitive than the indirect Coombs test, which assesses for antibody in the patient's serum to red cells. In some patients with IHA, all of their antibody may be attached to their red cells, therefore they may have a negative indirect Coombs test, but a positive direct Coombs test.
