Primary stroke prevention in children with sickle cell anemia living in africa: the false choice between patient-oriented research and humanitarian service-part ii
Trans Am Clin Climatol Assoc. 2022;132:236-248.ABSTRACTIn the United States, primary stroke prevention in children with sickle cell anemia (SCA) is the standard of care and includes annual transcranial Doppler ultrasound to detect elevated velocities. For children with velocities ≥200 cm/sec, initial monthly blood transfusion therapy for at least a year, followed by the option of hydroxyurea therapy, results in a significant decline in the stroke rate. In Africa, no prior strategy exists for primary stroke prevention because regular blood transfusion therapy is not feasible. We completed a randomized controlled trial for...

Results from the Displace Consortium: Practice Patterns on the Use of Transcranial Doppler Screening for Risk of Stroke in Children with Sickle Cell Anemia
Conclusions: Nearly all DISPLACE sites order TCD screening annually, as recommended in the guidelines, with some ordering screening more frequently. A few sites did not report initiation of CRCT per STOP protocol for abnormal TCD results; however, over half of the sites reported following up with an MRI/MRA, which may suggest evaluating for vasculopathy prior to CRCT. Some sites reported beginning HU therapy for abnormal results; this may reflect consideration of patients for whom CRCT is not possible, but data were not collected for confirmation. Interestingly, results suggest a reliance on MRI/MRA since sites commonly re...
