Pilot Results from an Integrated Pediatric Pulmonary Clinic on Outcomes in Children with Sickle Cell Disease

ConclusionsThese results demonstrate that interdisciplinary clinics can improve access to subspecialty pulmonary care for children with SCD and support the continued development and implementation of integrated care models. With limited follow-up, the results also suggest integrated SCD and pulmonary care can reduce hospitalizations and ED visits for VOEs, though additional follow-up is required to determine the true treatment effect.DisclosuresBlack: Bioverativ: Membership on an entity's Board of Directors or advisory committees; NIH: Research Funding; Pfizer: Research Funding; Sancilio Pharmaceuticals: Research Funding; Prolong Pharmaceuticals: Consultancy.
