Sickle Cell in the ED: Part 3
Manage episode 401829818 series 1963957
People living with sickle cell disease can experience severe “pain crises”, or vaso-occlusive episodes (VOE), and are at increased risk for infections, strokes, heart failure, and other serious disease processes. When patients are out sickle cell present to the ED, it is crucial to initiate their evaluation and treatment as soon as possible. So what does this mean practically for us as clinicians? Hematologist and Sickle Cell expert, Dr. Bimpe Adesina, and Emergency Physician and researcher, Dr. Bryn Mumma, join us to explore this topic in depth.
In part 1, we delved into assessment and management of patients presenting with VOE. In part 2, we spoke with Dr. Chris Rees about the benefits of early opioid pain control for kids presenting with VOE.
In the final episode of our series we’re back with Dr. Mumma and Dr. Adesina to discuss the management of other emergent presentations related to sickle cell disease.
