Abstract:
Approximately 100,000 people in the United States are affected by Sickle Cell Disease (SCD). Acute pain and chronic pain are common and are experienced by everyone with SCD. Children and adolescents who had pain from SCD reported daily pain, decreased function, missed school/workdays, and limited participation in recreational and social activities. This case report aims to highlight the lack of diversity, equity, and inclusion of pain control through the lens of a patient with SCD to improve clinical practice.

在美国,大约有100,000人受到镰状细胞病(SCD)的影响。急性疼痛和慢性疼痛是常见的,并且每个患有SCD的人都会经历。患有SCD疼痛的儿童和青少年每天报告疼痛,功能下降,错过了学校/工作日,有限地参与娱乐和社会活动。本案例报告旨在强调缺乏多样性,股本,并通过SCD患者的晶状体进行疼痛控制,以改善临床实践。
